Bookshelf

Bookshelf is a library mod that provides code, frameworks, and utilities for other mods. Many mods make use of Bookshelf and are powered by its code. The documentation for this mod can be found here.

Why use a library mod?

Library mods like Bookshelf allow seemingly unrelated mods to reuse parts of the same code base. This reduces the amount of time required to develop and maintain certain mods and features. Library code is also tested in a wider range of circumstances and communities which can lead to fewer bugs and faster code.
