Better Enchantment+
by S1xH3arts
Better Enchantment+ adds clearer enchantment tooltips for players who want to read what each enchantment does before using it on an item.
What it does
Enchantment descriptions appear beneath each enchantment name in the tooltip, so players can see the effect without leaving the item screen. The additions are client-side only, meaning a server and other players do not need the mod to see the descriptions, and the mod changes no game logic.
Tooltips also show which item types an enchantment applies to and which other enchantments it conflicts with. Enchanted books display their contents clearly, and holding Shift expands the information for a closer look. Language support covers modded enchantments as well as vanilla ones.
The mod is built for Fabric and targets 1.21.11 only. Its latest file is 1.0.0, published on 2026-02-09, and it is released under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.

How it compares
Enchantment Tags is a Fabric mod for 1.21.11 that is client-side only and released under the MIT License, so it is not the same as this mod's tooltip focus. Beautiful Tooltips is also client-side only on Fabric, covering 1.21 – 1.21.3 and open source under the MIT License, so it applies to a different version range. OldTooltips is client-side only on Fabric for 1.21.1 and open source under the MIT License, so it also does not cover 1.21.11.
