ColorChat
by Tallons
ColorChat lets players write chat messages in color on a multiplayer server, using Minecraft's color and formatting codes.
What it does
Players type color and formatting codes in chat to style their messages, such as colored text or bold lines. The mod's only addition is this ability to write colored chat, and it leaves the rest of the chat system unchanged. It runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. Files are published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.19.2, under the MIT License. The code is not open source.

Players can write chat messages in color through the standard Minecraft color codes.
Formatting in chat
Formatting codes such as bold and other text styles can be used when writing a message.
Server-side operation
Only the server needs the mod, so players join a server running it without installing anything.
