forge-essentials-client
ForgeEssentials Client is a Forge client addon that adds overlays for WorldEdit selections and permissions on top of server-side ForgeEssentials.
What it does
The addon is optional and provides extra features that a server running Forge alone cannot show on the client. It works alongside the server mod, and the server side needs no changes beyond the existing installation. Only the client needs it, so players install it while servers do not. Builds exist for Forge and cover 1.7.10 – 1.17.1, with 12.5.1 for 1.12.2 as the latest file. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later.

Extra client features
Adds client-side features that a server running Forge without the client addon cannot provide.

What the author says
It provides some additional features, which are not possible with server-only forge mods: (Note: The client addon is functional compatible with the server side mod and is thus only updated when there is a change on the client side)
