Fast Config API
by Infinituum17
Fast Config API is a configuration library that lets other mods create, load, manage and delete their config files at runtime.
What it does
The library is built to make config creation quick, with a small, simple API that developers can follow without much setup. Its goal is to let a mod define its settings in a few steps rather than writing file handling by hand. Void Lib is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Builds cover 1.18.2 – 1.21.8 on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and the code is under a custom license that does not make it open source.
Key features
Fast config creation
A short API lets a mod create config files quickly, which keeps setup code small.
Runtime config handling
Configs can be loaded, managed and deleted while the game is running, not only at startup.
Platform-independent use
The same API works across Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, so mods built on it need one codebase.
