What it does

The mod creates map items from the contents of a book, so a book's text and pages can be displayed on a map. It is server-side only, which means players join without installing it and only the server needs the mod. Fabric API is required, and Image2Map is an optional companion. Files are published for Fabric across 19 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.2, and the code is open source under the MIT License.
