What does Prism API: A new perspective on UI add?
💎 Prism API
The Ultimate Rendering Framework for Minecraft NeoForge/Fabric.
Prism is a high-performance, developer-friendly UI and rendering library designed to bridge the gap between "standard modded UIs" and "professional dashboard experiences." It provides a suite of tools for handling complex layouts, fluid dynamics, and butter-smooth animations with minimal boilerplate.
⚠️ Prism API is a Library Mod!
