Clock HUD Renew
by KawaiiZapic
Clock HUD Renew shows a clock on the screen during play, with a key to hide it and a settings screen to change how it appears.
What it does
Clock HUD Renew is a Fabric client mod that displays a clock screen over the game, so a player can read the time without opening a menu. A key toggles the overlay off and back on, and a Home key opens the mod's configuration screen. The configuration screen is built with Cloth Config API, which must be installed alongside Fabric API for the mod to load.
The mod works only on the client, so a server does not need it and players can join a server without installing anything. It is a rewrite of the earlier ClockHUD project and targets the newer Fabric releases. The custom license means the code is not open source, and the project publishes its source code and issue tracker as public links.
Files exist for the 27 release versions in that range, and the latest Fabric file is 1.1.12 for 1.21.11, published on 2026-01-03. The mod was first published on 2024-06-18 and last updated on the same day as its latest file.

Use cases
Timing builds and fights
A player who watches the time while building or fighting can keep the clock visible and hide it with one key when the view needs to be clear.
Single-player and multiplayer
Because the mod is client-only, it can be added to a personal install and used on any server without server-side setup.
Who it’s for: Players who want a clock on screen during play and prefer to keep it on the client side. Server owners do not need to install anything for it to work.
