About this project
What does LibTooltips add?
LibTooltips is a simple API allowing for translation-key driven tooltips with no code needed.
"tooltip.minecraft.diamond.0" : "Such a fancy <ltrgb>rgb rainbow</ltrgb> tooltip!",
"tooltip.minecraft.diamond.1" : "And look, it even supports several lines, wow",


It supports basic tag processing to allow for some control over specific parts of the tooltip, such as changing the text dynamically, or adding color.
You can also add permanent tooltips to items
"tooltip.always.minecraft.diamond.0" : "This tooltip will always show!"
