Bobo Lib
by Bobophones
Bobo Lib is a shared code library from Bobophones, used by other Bobophones mods to avoid duplicating common code.
What it does
Bobo Lib provides base classes for items, blocks and entities, along with helpers for world, GUI and model code that other mods can build on. Its math functions cover routines that mod code often needs, so authors do not have to write them again. Since it is a library, it adds no content on its own and players mostly see it as a required file.
Three mods in the catalog require Bobo Lib: Overpacked, BlockDonald's and Backpets. Installation needs the Forge or NeoForge loader, and the mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge across seven game versions, 1.20 – 1.21.1, under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0 license, which is not open source.
Key features
Base classes for content
Base classes for items, blocks and entities give dependent mods a common starting point for their own content.
World and GUI helpers
Functions for world operations and graphical interfaces reduce repeated code in mods that place blocks or draw screens.
Model functions
Helpers for models let dependent mods handle rendering setup without writing the same routines in each project.
Math functions
A set of math routines is included for calculations that multiple Bobophones mods rely on.
DevTool for custom functions
A DevTool lets a developer add their own functions to the library, extending it for a specific project.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.

Use cases
Building on the library
A developer writing a Bobophones mod can use the shared base classes and helpers instead of copying code into each project.
Running dependent mods
A player who installs Overpacked, BlockDonald's or Backpets also needs Bobo Lib on the same side as those mods.
Who it’s for: Mod developers who want shared base classes, helpers and math routines, and players who need Bobo Lib because a mod they use requires it.
