HueFinder
by Artifyz
HueFinder is a Fabric browser for in-game color palettes that helps builders pick color combinations from its built-in set without scrolling through hundreds of blocks.
What it does
Builders who need color inspiration can open the palette browser from the in-game menu and search or filter the 18 hand-curated palettes. Each palette groups related hues, such as deep sea blues and teals, warm evening oranges and reds, natural greens with earth tones, or majestic purples and magentas, so a set of colors that fit together can be chosen at once.
The browser is meant for creative building and design planning, where a cohesive scheme is needed before any blocks are placed. A single keypress opens the browser, so it can be used during a build without leaving the flow of play. The mod is client-side only, so servers do not need it and players can use it alone in single-player or on any server. It runs on Fabric and has files for 1.21.4 – 1.21.9, with 2.1.3 for 1.21.9 as the latest release. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source. NoMenuBlur is an optional dependency that can be added alongside it.
Key features
Palette browser
A menu screen lists the built-in palettes, and each one can be opened to see the colors it contains.
Search and filtering
Palettes can be searched by name or theme, so a suitable set is found faster than by browsing a full block list.
Curated palettes
Eighteen palettes are included, each grouped around a theme such as ocean depths, forest canopy or royal purple.
Single-keypress access
One key opens the browser from anywhere in the game, keeping a build in progress uninterrupted.
