About this project

What does Improved Inventory Tabs add?

Supports Minecraft 26.2 with both NeoForge and Fabric

View and access nearby blocks without leaving your inventory by switching between tabs. This mod works purely on the client side, so no need to add it to server mod lists.

Instructions

Placing chests near each other will allow you to access them via a tab.

You can also place an item frame on a chest, and the item inside the item frame will be the icon for that tab.

Using Cloth config, you can also exclude certain blocks from appearing as a tab.

Requests

If there is a version of Minecraft you would like this mod to work for, please leave a comment and I can get to it.


Fourth-generation continuation: the original mod is by cakewhip (kqpel), continued by LiamMCW, then Andrew6rant through 1.19, and now here for 1.20.1, 1.21.1, and 26.2+.
