DevTools
DevTools is a client-side Fabric mod that lets a player inspect blocks, fluids, dropped items and living entities with a debug-style data panel.
What it does
A quick-facts panel shows coordinates, health of living entities and item details, and a detailed view expands the selected target into fuller categories. The HUD gives an immediate summary and can be expanded when more information is needed.
Server owners gain nothing from it, since only the client needs the mod. Installation requires Fabric API alongside it in the mods folder. Files target Fabric for game versions 1.14 – 26.1.2, and the latest Fabric file is 1.0.1 for 1.19.4, released on 2026-06-06. The project is released under the MIT License and is open source, with its full license text kept at the repository root.
Key features
Inspect mode
Pressing F6 toggles Inspect mode, and left-clicking a block or creature under the cursor selects it for reading.
Detailed data view
Pressing M expands the detailed data of the selected target, with boolean values and true or false lines colored for quick scanning.
Customizable layout
The Options screen lets players adjust line colors, toggle which data lines appear and change the panel layout, with a hex field and a Hue Saturation Brightness picker per line.
Clipboard copying
Deep NBT-style data can be dumped and copied to the clipboard, and key bindings are remapped under the Controls menu.
