Cinnamon Client
by Cinnamonpuma
Cinnamon Client is a Fabric client mod that adds a customizable HUD, a modern UI framework and drag-and-drop placement for on-screen elements.
What it does
Cinnamon Client lets a player move, resize and align HUD elements live in-game. Elements can be dragged anywhere on screen, snapped to edge guides and scaled to an exact size, so the layout can be set up without editing config files. Its screens are built on a shared UI framework, and the mod is built on Kotlin with a lightweight, modular structure that keeps its footprint small.
The mod needs Fabric Language Kotlin as a required dependency, alongside Fabric itself. It is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it and servers run without it. Files target 1.21.5 – 1.21.8 with 1.8 for 1.21.8 as the latest build, published from 2025-06-28 and updated 2025-12-02. It is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source, though its source code is public.
Key features
Drag and drop placement
HUD elements can be picked up and moved to any position on the screen while the game is running.
Edge snapping guides
Alignment guides snap elements to screen edges and to each other for precise placement.
Dynamic scaling
Each element can be resized to an exact preference, with the scale adjusted in place.
Modern UI screens
Configuration screens share one framework, so navigation between menus stays consistent.
Networking utilities
Packet-level utilities provide fine-grained controls for mods that need network hooks.
