Demo Client
by DemoTheShy
Demo Client is a free, lightweight Fabric client utility for Minecraft 1.21.1, built around a sleek Click GUI and a set of HUD modules that can be placed anywhere on screen.
What it does
The mod groups its HUD modules and gameplay helpers into one interface. Players can show or hide modules such as FPS, ping, coordinates, speed, a clock, CPS and keystrokes, plus armor, potion status, reach display and a nametag view. A draggable HUD editor lets each element be moved and placed to suit the screen layout.
Gameplay helpers in the same set include fullbright, hitbox display, auto sprint and free look. Right Alt opens the Click GUI, and Right Shift opens the configuration screen. Settings are saved between sessions, so the layout persists after the game closes.
Demo Client requires Fabric API, so both must be installed for the mod to load. It is a client mod: only the player needs it, and servers run without it. The author describes it as a beta release, so bugs and missing features are expected, and updates are planned to add features and improvements based on feedback. The mod is distributed under All rights reserved and is not open source.
