The library gives developers a base for equipment that grants status effects. Items and armor can apply mob effects in different circumstances, and the wiki explains how to set up a development environment and create items. Client and server both need it, and it is published for Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21.1, with 1.21 also among the listed game versions.

Questions

Does EquipLib need to be installed on both sides?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Can developers bundle EquipLib inside their own mods?

No. Bundling it with JarInJar or similar methods is prohibited, so players install the library separately.
