Give player an item when they join the world

[Shynee]

Hi! I am very, very new to Java coding and Minecraft Plugins and I want to know how to give a player an item when they join the world. For instance,when you join the server you will get a rule book with link to our website (I have the book sorted out, I just need to be able to run the /give command).  Once again I am very new so please explain in the simplest terms and maybe even try to supply as much code as possible. Thanks!

You should be able to give the item in PlayerEvent.PlayerLoggedInEvent.

Amazing! As I said, I am very new to this so if I wanted to give them a book, what would the command be to do that? Thanks for all the help!
