JinxedLib
JinxedLib is a library for developers who build mods across several loaders and for modpack creators who use data packs.
What it does
The library gives multi-loader projects a shared set of helpers, including registry utilities that remove the need to set up registry services again for each new project. It also covers sign validation, creative tab ordering for dyed blocks and flammable block classes whose NeoForge side is already handled, leaving only the Fabric side to implement.
Data pack tools are included for modpack makers. Items can be made compostable or usable as furnace fuel through data files, and paletted permutations can take whole directories as sprite sources. The library is required by 7 other catalog mods, including Arts & Crafts, Spells Gone Wrong, The Bygone, Kaleidoscopic and Carpentry & Chisels, and it needs both the server and every player to run. Files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 5 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.1.2, and the wiki explains setup.
Key features
Registry utilities
Helpers that simplify registering content, so a new multi-loader project does not need its own registry services.
Data-driven compostable items
Any item can be made compostable through a data pack, without writing code.
Data-driven furnace fuels
An item can be added as a furnace fuel by a data pack file, which suits modpack customization.
Paletted permutation directories
Directories can serve as sprite sources for paletted permutations, used for dyed decorated pots in Arts & Crafts.
Sign validity list
Signs are added to a built-in list instead of requiring a mixin into the sign validity check.
Dyed block creative ordering
A loop can place dyed blocks in the creative category in the correct order, with support for custom dye mods.

What the author says
JinxedLib is a library mod designed to help creators make multi-loader mods easier. This mod also comes with some data pack tools that may help modpack creators as well! Some of these features are similar to NeoForge features, the reason for porting them is so these features can be used in the fabric or common package.
