About libMCdev
From ModrinthContains a handful of utilities to aid in mod development.
libMCdev
_A development library mainly intended for me (AnOpenSauceDev) and my mods_
This mod is designed for mod-developers. Chances are, they have already baked this mod in via Jar-In-Jar. If not, you can download it from here. (libMCdev on its own will take priority over include-ed versions of this mod.)
Features
- An OS-grabbing tool, that offers a more detailed view on OS information, especially on Linux.
- A _primitive_ media API, built off of Minecraft's own image system, that can be applied to just about anything.
- A persistent variable API, useful for storing small blocks of data across worlds (and servers).
- A debug system, that allows you to only execute code when running in development environments.
There's probably more, but a lot changes frequently. Speaking of that, backwards compatability is not guaranteed. The closest thing to "compatibility" ensured is whatever Methane calls. If you for some reason _do_ use libMCdev, let me know, and I can partially accomodate for that.
As always, if you want to work with this, you should read the docs here.
