Hide XP Bar
by PhilSkii
Hide XP Bar removes the experience bar from the in-game HUD on the client, for cleaner screenshots and minimalist setups.
What it does
The client-side toggle hides the vanilla experience bar so the HUD shows nothing in its place. Because it only changes what is drawn, it can be left on during builds, recordings and cinematic captures without touching gameplay on the server. It needs Fabric API and is released under the MIT License, not as open source. Files cover game versions 1.20.1 – 1.21.11 on Fabric.

What the author says
Hides the vanilla XP bar from your HUD for a cleaner screen or more immersion. Lightweight, client-side, no toggle(yet?) Perfect for screenshots, cinematics, or minimalist setups. No performance impact and should work seamlessly with other HUD mods. Can confirm AppleSkin works.
