Coordinates Display
Coordinates Display puts a live X, Y and Z readout on the screen for Fabric players on Minecraft 1.21.4, with the position set by screen corner.
What it does
The mod shows the player's current X, Y and Z coordinates as text on the HUD. The readout updates while the player moves, and its corner placement and text color can be changed in an in-game configuration screen, which also opens from the mod options. Some settings are only reachable by editing the config file by hand, as the author text notes.
Coordinates Display is built as a lightweight, client-side only addition. Only the player's own game needs it, so servers and other players do not install anything. It requires Fabric API and is published for Fabric alone, for Minecraft 1.21.4. The files are released under All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
Key features
Live coordinate readout
X, Y and Z values are drawn on screen and refresh as the player moves through the world.
Corner-based placement
The readout can be anchored to a chosen corner of the screen, so it stays clear of other HUD elements.
Adjustable text color
The color of the coordinate text can be changed to suit the player's texture pack or background.
In-game configuration screen
Position and color are set from a screen opened in-game, without restarting the client for each change.
Show or hide on demand
The coordinate display can be toggled on or off while playing, so it can be hidden during screenshots or builds.

Use cases
Navigating large worlds
A constant readout helps players note where a base, a deep cave or a portal sits while exploring far from spawn.
Building and redstone work
Exact positions make it easier to line up builds, pistons or farms across several chunks.
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who want a simple position readout in single-player or on multiplayer servers. Because it is client-side only, it does not need server permission or changes on the server.
How it compares
Nether Coordinates is a Fabric client mod for 1.21.11, released under All rights reserved and not open source. CoordsMod is also Fabric and client-side only, for 1.21.8, under the MIT License. Coords HUD covers 1.21.11 under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which places no restrictions on use. Coordinates Display is limited to 1.21.4, so players on other versions will need one of these alternatives.
