LiLaC
by opekope2
LiLaC is a shared library by opekope2 that was meant to offer a common API across several Minecraft versions.
What it does
The library was built so that a single codebase could serve several game versions. Its author describes the code as large and complex, and prone to bugs and oversights. The author also stopped maintaining it, so the dependent project now carries on without this library and targets only recent game versions.
Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin are required, and the mod is published for Fabric and Quilt. Files cover 1.19.4 – 1.20.2, and the latest build is 1.0.0-beta.3 for 1.20.2. Either side can run it, and neither needs it. The code is open source under the MIT License.
