Bookmark for Recipe Books
by wighugan
Bookmark for Recipe Books lets players save a recipe from the recipe book so it can be found again later.
What it does
Hovering over a recipe in the recipe book and pressing a hotkey adds it to a bookmark tab. The tab sits alongside the crafting, smelting and other recipe book categories, so saved recipes stay in one place. Players can press the same key again on a saved recipe to remove it from the tab, and the hotkey itself can be changed in the mod's settings.
The mod is client-side only, so a server does not need it and players can use it on any server or in single-player. It runs on Fabric for 1.21.1 and is open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0. The source code and the issue tracker are public.
Key features
Bookmark tab in the recipe book
A tab in the recipe book holds recipes the player has saved, next to the crafting and smelting categories.
Save recipes by hovering
Hovering over a recipe and pressing the bookmark key saves it, so players can mark only the recipes they want to craft.
Remove saved recipes
Pressing the same key on a saved recipe takes it out of the bookmark tab.
Configurable hotkey
The key that saves and removes recipes can be set in the mod's settings.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Long crafting projects
Players who build large setups can keep the recipes for the items they need in one tab instead of searching each category.
Who it’s for: Players who use the recipe book often and want quick access to a short list of recipes they craft repeatedly.
How it compares
Always Open Recipe Book is a Fabric mod for 1.21.11 that also works client-side only, but it is not open source and is released under All rights reserved. Save Position is a client-side Fabric mod for 1.21.5 – 1.21.11 under All rights reserved, and it is not open source. Command Books is open source under the MIT License and is for Fabric 1.19.4 – 1.21.11, but it is server required with client optional, so it differs in where it runs.
