Digital Clocks
by blzdrgon
Digital Clocks adds wall, desk and bell clocks to the decorative set, showing either the game time or the computer's real-world time, with working alarms set from a UI.
What it does
Clocks can show the in-game time, the real-world system time, or a custom time the builder sets by hand. Digital, analog, wall, desk and twin bell clock models are included, and each comes in nine color options so a clock can match the surrounding build. Alarms are configured through a UI, and when one fires it plays a custom alarm sound.
The mod works on Fabric and NeoForge across 18 release versions, 1.16.5 – 26.2, and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is released under the MIT License, and the project is not open source. Balm-style library dependencies are not listed for this mod, so no other mod is required to install it. Snapshot builds are not part of the catalog entry.

Use cases
Modernizing a base
Digital and analog wall clocks suit modern interiors, where a clock keeps the time visible in a room without adding a block that looks out of place.
Displaying real time
A clock set to system time shows the computer's time, which suits builds that mirror the player's own schedule.
Who it’s for: Builders who decorate interiors and want clocks that show either game time or real-world time. Survival and creative players can both place them, and server owners running the mod on a multiplayer server need it installed on the server and on each client.
