Gardnercraft Mod
by ILLEGAL_KONG
Gardnercraft Mod adds Gardnercraft-themed items, an armor trim smithing template and a music disc with a custom song to Fabric servers.
What it does
Gardnercraft Mod is a server-side only Fabric mod, so players join without installing it, while the server needs it. It depends on Polymer, which packs the mod's custom textures into a server resource pack that vanilla clients receive when they join. Clients must accept that server resource pack to see the custom armor trims and item textures.
The mod places the Gardnercraft custom item, the armor trim smithing template and the music disc in the game, and it includes custom item armor trim textures. Polymer's AutoHost option can be enabled after the first server start, so the server generates the resource pack from the mod's assets. Fabric API is needed for Fabric builds.
Gardnercraft Mod is released under the MIT License and is open source, with public source code, an issue tracker and a wiki. Builds cover 1.21 – 1.21.11 across 12 release versions, and the latest file, 2.0.0, targets 1.21.11 and was published on 2026-05-11.
