BuilderPalette
by oDilan
BuilderPalette is a Fabric management mod that lets builders assemble custom block palettes so frequently used blocks stay within reach while building.
What it does
Pressing P opens the BuilderPalette menu, where a builder creates a new palette and adds blocks to it through a block browser. Once a palette is set up, its blocks can be reached quickly, which replaces repeated scrolling through the entire creative inventory during a build.
The mod is described by its author as a lightweight building utility for organizing blocks in one place. It suits projects such as castles, historic villages, landscape shaping and furnished rooms, where a consistent set of materials visible at all times helps a build keep its look. Fabric API is required, and the mod runs on Fabric only, with files for 1.21.9, 1.21.10 and 1.21.11.
Servers do not need it; each player installs it for their own game. The license is the MIT License, and the mod is not open source. The latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.21.11, published on 2026-03-05.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Builders working on large or detailed structures in single-player or on a client who want a fixed set of blocks close at hand. Players who only place a few blocks have little use for a dedicated palette.
How it compares
BuildPalette is a Fabric mod for 1.21.4 – 1.21.8, released under the Apache License 2.0 and not open source. It is client-side only like BuilderPalette, but its file range ends before 1.21.9. InspireMe With Palettes is client-side only, released under the MIT License and open source, with Fabric files for 1.21.6 – 26.3, so it covers the same versions as BuilderPalette and later.
