LibZoomer
by Ennui
LibZoomer is a Fabric and Quilt library that lets other mods add zoom functionality and customize it to their own needs.
What it does
Mod authors can build zoom into their own projects through LibZoomer rather than writing a zoom system from scratch. Ok Zoomer is one example: its zoom is powered by this library, and the library was merged back into Ok Zoomer starting with version 10.0.0. The library is a separate codebase kept apart so it can be maintained on its own terms.
Zoom behavior is provided on the client only, so it needs to be installed only on the player side. The project is open source under the MIT License, with a public source repository and issue tracker. Files target the 1.17 – 1.21 range across 17 release versions, with 0.10.0+1.21-fabric for 1.21 as the latest file, published on 2024-06-14 for both Fabric and Quilt.
Fabric API is required and must be installed alongside LibZoomer. Snapshot builds are published as well. The project first appeared on 2021-01-24 and was last updated on 2024-06-14.
Key features
Zoom for other mods
Other mods can call the library to add zoom features, so each project does not need its own zoom code.
Customizable zoom
Mods that use the library can adjust zoom behavior to match their own needs.
Shared zoom base
Ok Zoomer runs on this library, which keeps zoom logic in one place across mods that depend on it.
Separate codebase
The library is maintained as its own project, apart from the mods that use it.

What the author says
LibZoomer has been merged back into Ok Zoomer since Ok Zoomer 10.0.0. Maintaining the codebase as a separate library while keeping it on its best possible state has stopped being feasible for a while, and merging it back will allow us to deliver the best zoom mod possible.
