BlablaLib

by gcjojo

BlablaLib is a library for dialogue on Fabric and Forge, providing a simple dialogue system that other mods and modpacks can build on.

FabricForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1 – 1.20.6

What it does

The library adds a dialogue system that content mods can call into. Dialogue is started and set with commands such as dialogue play and dialogue set, so a server owner can trigger a conversation by name. Architectury API and Fabric API are required, and the code is open source under the MIT License. Builds cover 1.20.1 – 1.20.6 for both loaders.

Key features

  1. Simple dialogue system

    Provides a basic framework for showing conversations, which other mods can use without writing their own.

  2. Command control

    Dialogue can be played or assigned to a mod entry with commands, so conversations can be started without code.

  3. Library role

    The mod adds no content of its own; it exists to supply the dialogue code that other mods depend on.

What the author says

This is not a mod that adds anything by itself. You can use commands like /dialogue play and /dialogue set my_mod:my_cool_dialogue to use this library.
