Easy Waypoints
by cuakek
Easy Waypoints lets players mark places in the world and toggle or hide those markers with single key presses, and it is written for Fabric clients on Minecraft 26.1 – 26.3.
What it does
Waypoints can be shown or hidden with the K key, and a single waypoint can be hidden without opening any menu. The J key opens a waypoint list where each point can be chosen and highlighted. Waypoints can be sorted into up to four groups, and a whole group can be hidden or shown at once. A waypoint marked as a favorite is always listed first and stays more visible when the player looks toward it.
A quick ping with the V key places a waypoint right where the player is looking. Waypoints fade as the player looks at them, lowering their opacity so they intrude less on the view. A Nether-to-Overworld duplicate is created in one click from the list, with the coordinates scaled by eight so the copy lines up with the original location.
The mod is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it and servers run without it. It is published for Fabric and works alongside vanilla Minecraft. The code is not open source; the CC0 1.0 Universal license applies.
