KeyMap Viewer
by _xinglin_
KeyMap Viewer is a Fabric client mod that shows the keybindings of Minecraft and of MaLiLib-based mods in a HUD overlay and an in-game list.
What it does
Players who want to check which key triggers a control can open KeyMap Viewer's screen to see vanilla controls and the hotkeys of other mods listed in one place, organized by category. The same keybindings can also be drawn as a real-time overlay on the HUD, so the list stays visible while playing.
The mod depends on MaLiLib, which must be installed alongside it on Fabric. Since it is a client-side mod, only the player's client needs it, and a server does not have to run it. Files are published for Fabric only, across 23 release versions 1.20.1 – 26.3, with 1.0.2+26.3 as the latest file, released 2026-10-02. The mod is first listed under 2026-08-23. It is not open source, and it is released with All rights reserved.
Key features
Keybinding screen
An in-game screen lists the keybindings of vanilla controls and of MaLiLib-based mods, grouped and ordered for reading.
HUD key overlay
A configurable overlay draws the active keybindings on screen in real time while the player plays.

Use cases
Learning controls in a modpack
A player installing many mods can use the screen to find which key opens a given feature from a mod like Litematica or Tweakeroo.
Spotting clashing bindings
Conflict detection shows when two actions share a key, so the player can reassign one of them.
Who it’s for: The mod suits players who run MaLiLib-based mods such as Litematica or Tweakeroo and want their keybindings in one place. Because it runs only on the client, it does not change how a server operates.
