🥽 About

An API that adds several client and server side functions, both for developers and those who make resource packs, among them:

  • UI Definitions, to add or modify countless elements of the screens and GUI, either using resource packs (main function) or by code
  • Essential Events, most of them abstracting directly from the mod loaders
  • A Common Network, to send and register payloads in a unified way, requiring almost zero changes between the supported versions
  • Several common implementations among modloaders of item, fluid and energy storage with the correct exposure for the respective APIs
  • A way to have block lighting levels with access to Level (only implemented in Fabric, Forge and NeoForge already have this)
