Ench Tell
Ench Tell adds enchantment descriptions to item tooltips, so the effect of an enchantment can be read without leaving the game.
What it does
Hovering over an enchanted item shows a description for each enchantment directly in its tooltip. Players can switch the display on or off for items through a showOnItems setting, and a debug mode lets a player replace existing enchantment descriptions with custom translations. The mod is client-side only, so only the player's game needs it, and it requires Fabric API and ReLib. It is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is published for Fabric for 26.1 – 26.3.
