About this project
What does Barely Crafting add?

A crafting table that remembers. Its 3x3 grid stays in the block and it crafts from the chests next to it.
Barely Crafting adds the Crafting Station for Forge and NeoForge on Minecraft 26.2 and 26.3. Put a chest beside it, put one of each ingredient in the grid, and shift-click the result: the grid refills itself from the chest until the chest is empty. Wiki: https://itmecasey.com/wiki/barelycrafting/

- The grid keeps its items when you close the screen.
- Crafts from chests, barrels and any storage block with an item handler, on all six sides, nearest first.
- Server-side crafting: nothing is created or lost, leftovers like empty buckets are handled, and shift-click crafts as many as fit.
- Six buttons left of the grid: Clear, Rotate, Mirror, Balance, Refill and Craft All, with tooltips. Each can be switched off in the config.
- The screen shows how many storages it found, how many crafts are left and where the next ingredient comes from.
- BEI: the plus button of a recipe fills the grid.

Does it pull items like a hopper? No. It only takes an item for a craft or a button you press.
Which versions? Minecraft 26.2 and 26.3, Forge and NeoForge, one jar each. No Fabric, no older versions.
