Q: What does it do?
A: The library implements highly optimized attribute-based variant system for rendering things. It is very efficient way to add thousands of variants for any item or block.
In the base game, when block/item adds insane variant combinations by using VariantGroups, it creates thousands of item IDs (1 item ID per variant).
Each block/item ID creates new instance which affects RAM a lot and with thousands of item IDs it can take up to 20-30 minutes to just load into a world.
By using this library, you can cut thousands of item IDs down into just 1-4 IDs per item!
Q: How will it help me?
A: Your mod would no longer take 20 minutes to load. You will be able to add infinitely more types than without it.
Q: Does it change any code in the api/vanilla?
A: It has a few Harmony patches to make some features work.

If your modded block/item looks like that, then you need to use this library in your mod as soon as possible!
