About this project

What does TurtleLib add?

A lightweight helper library for Minecraft mods on Fabric and NeoForge. TurtleLib does not add gameplay on its own — it provides shared technical systems used by other mods.

TurtleLib is a dependency library designed to keep mod code cleaner and more reusable across loaders.If a mod requires TurtleLib, it must be installed in the same mods/ folder.

Features ✨

  • Locale loading and synchronization (LangLoader)
  • Localized message formatting (MessageService)
  • Provider-based update checks (UpdateChecker)
  • Deterministic version comparison (VersionComparator)
  • Shared behavior across Fabric and NeoForge modules

Quick Start (Players) 🚀

  1. Download the TurtleLib version that matches your Minecraft/loader version.
  2. Put the TurtleLib JAR into your Minecraft mods/ folder.
  3. Add the dependent mod(s) that require TurtleLib.
  4. Start the game normally.

If TurtleLib is missing, dependent mods may fail to load.
