Forgified Fabric API
by Sinytra
Forgified Fabric API lets NeoForge mods use the hooks and events that Fabric API provides, so a developer can write against one shared library for both loaders.
What it does
The library ports the Fabric API surface to NeoForge and tracks the upstream repository, so its releases follow the Fabric code. Its main purpose is to expose functionality that is useful but hard to reach from a mod, including particles, biomes and dimensions. It also supplies events, hooks and APIs that help separate mods work together.
It is a port, not an abstraction layer. Code that depends on loader-specific behaviour still has to be written for each platform, and this library only covers the shared Fabric API calls. It is a required dependency for mods that were built on Fabric API, including Continuity, Sinytra Connector and BetterGrassify. Builds exist for Forge and NeoForge across the 1.20.1 and 26.2 game versions, licensed under the Apache License 2.0 and published as open source.
Key features
Shared hooks and events
Events and hooks from Fabric API are available on NeoForge, so a mod can use the same calls on both loaders.
Access to hard-to-reach features
Particles, biomes and dimensions are exposed through the API, which many mods need but otherwise cannot reach.
Rendering API
An advanced rendering API is included, built for compatibility with optimization and graphics overhaul mods.
Regular upstream updates
The port is kept up to date with the upstream Fabric API repository, so new releases track the original code.
Public project resources
The source code, issue tracker and wiki are public, so users can report problems and read documentation.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.

Use cases
Cross-loader mod development
A developer targeting both Forge and NeoForge can call Fabric API methods on each loader and keep most logic identical.
Running Fabric-based mods on NeoForge
Mods that depend on Fabric API can run on NeoForge once this library is installed, provided they have a NeoForge build.
Who it’s for: Mod developers who want to write against Fabric API on NeoForge, and players who install mods that require it. The library is used by a large group of dependent mods.
Questions
Does a NeoForge mod that uses Fabric API need this library?
