Dynamic RPG HUD
by Mr_Lan123
Dynamic RPG HUD hides the hotbar status bars and shows them again only when something changes, with a smooth slide and fade.
What it does
Players who want a cleaner screen can let the health, hunger and related bars slide out of view while the character stands still at full health. They reappear when a value drops or the player moves, fights or takes damage. The HUD can be set to fade out in a default smooth style, a slide down, a gradual shrink or an instant hide.
Settings open through Mod Menu, where the mod's configure screen lets players bind a key, adjust each element and open a layout editor. Pressing H switches the HUD on or off by default, and the Automatic HUD Visibility Trigger can be swapped for a hotkey-only mode. Reset Everything restores the defaults after a confirmation prompt. The mod requires Fabric API and installs in the mods folder of a Fabric client.
Dynamic RPG HUD is open source under the MIT License. Its source code and issue tracker are public, and files cover 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, with 2.2.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest build.
Key features
Automatic hiding
Bars hide while the player stands still at full health, hunger and related values, then return when something happens.

Each element can leave with a smooth fade, a slide down, a gradual shrink or an instant hide.

Hotkey and automatic modes
The H key toggles the HUD by default, and an automatic mode reacts to events instead when the player prefers it.

What the author says
Dynamic RPG HUD hides your hotbar and status bars while you do not need them and brings them back the moment something happens. Every element can be moved, resized and tuned in a visual editor, and the HUD of several popular mods can be tuned the same way. The mod is installed on the client only. It never moves…
