Close Buttons
by CT-414
Close Buttons places a close button on inventory and container screens, so a player can leave a menu with a single click instead of pressing the escape key.
What it does
Close Buttons adds a simple X button to inventory and container screens. Clicking it exits the container at once, which saves time when a player moves between several menus in a row. The mouse-driven layout also makes inventory handling more convenient on touch-enabled devices.
Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it and players join without installing anything. It requires Fabric, with files published for 26.2 and 26.3. The code is released under the MIT License, but the project is not open source.
