libhud
by Cheos
libhud is a Fabric library that gives mods a shared way to draw components on the in-game HUD, so that several HUD-adding mods can coexist.
What it does
libhud exists to improve compatibility between mods that add HUD components to the game screen. Instead of each mod drawing over the same areas independently, mods built on the library register their elements through one common layer. The mod changes no gameplay on its own; other mods are the ones that depend on it and must be installed alongside it. Files are published for Fabric only, covering 1.19.4, 1.20, 1.20.1 and 1.20.2, with the latest file 1.0.0-beta7 for 1.20.2. It is client-side only, so servers do not need it, and it is released under the MIT License as open source.
