About this project

What does Highlights add?

Highlights is a lightweight, client-side Fabric mod that adds powerful, rule-based item highlighting to Minecraft inventory screens. It helps you instantly spot important items by outlining or highlighting them with custom colors, without changing item textures or affecting gameplay.

Inspired by the Highlighter mod, but rebuilt for modern Fabric versions with better performance and full configurability.
