For Developers

Embers Text API provides a full Java API for sending styled messages from the server. Register custom effects, parse markup, or build spans programmatically.

Check the documentation for integration guides and API reference.

For Pack Devs

  • This is a library/api mod, it does nothing in gameplay on its own, but the command system lets you create and test effects in-game, and the inline markup (like <rainbow> or <neon>) styles item names, tooltips, and quest descriptions!
  • Safe to include in any pack.
  • Great for quest descriptions, tips, boss introductions, or any stylish text overlay.
  • Works with KubeJS and datapacks! v3 includes built in KubeJS support!
