CustomHud Ported
by R3apxr
CustomHud Ported is a Fabric client mod that replaces the fixed debug text with a variable-based HUD, where each line of text is defined by the player in a profile file.
What it does
The HUD is built from a profile file in which the player writes the text to display, using built-in variables such as frames per second and the game version. Each line can be placed in one of the four screen corners, given a custom background color, and colored with full RGB hexadecimal values. Conditional text lets a line change its output depending on the value of other variables, so a readout can appear only when a condition holds.
The mod is aimed at players who want information on screen that the default F3 debug screen does not offer, or who want to position and color it exactly. It runs on the client alone, so players can use it without any server-side install. This port is for Minecraft 1.21.11 and is published only for Fabric. The author has said a Forge port is planned, and the MIT License permits anyone to port it. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source in the sense of a public repository of its build.
Key features
Variable-based text HUD
Lines are defined in a profile file, and any built-in variable can be placed wherever the player wants it on screen.
Conditional text
A line can switch its displayed text according to the value of another variable, so output adapts during play.
Full color support
Text and background colors accept hexadecimal RGB values, giving precise control over how each line looks.
Four-corner placement
Each block of information can be anchored to any of the four screen corners and given its own background.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Who it’s for: Players who want to choose exactly which values appear on screen and how they are colored, rather than the fixed layout of the debug screen.

Chyma is a Fabric client mod for 1.20.4 – 1.21.1, released under the MIT License and open source, with the same client-only environment.

CustomHud is a highly configurable variable-based text HUD. While there are mods that also add text HUDs or allow you to customize the F3 debug screen, they aren't fully customizable. Their customization is mostly limited to colors and whether a line or module is displayed. CustomHud allows you to place the data…
