weed6's Armor HUD
weed6's Armor HUD shows the armor a player wears in the in-game HUD, with each piece's item icon and remaining durability.
What it does
Each equipped armor piece appears on the HUD with its item icon, so the state of the armor can be read during play without opening the inventory. The display is meant to be lightweight, and the author describes it as less buggy than other armor HUD options, aimed at modern PvP play.
The position and scale of each armor piece can be adjusted with X and Y sliders and a rescale slider, found in the Mod Menu configuration screen. Mod Menu and Cloth Config API must both be installed for those options to appear, and Fabric API is needed on Fabric as well.
Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it and players can use it on any server. Files are published for Fabric alone, covering 1.21.1 and 1.21.11, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest build. The code is licensed under the MIT License, but the project is not open source.

Durability readout
Remaining durability is shown for each equipped armor piece, next to its item icon.

Scale and position sliders
X, Y and rescale sliders in the Mod Menu screen let players fit the armor display to their layout.

Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who want a visible armor status in the HUD, especially during PvP. Servers do not need the mod, since it runs only on the client.
