Mob Boss Bars
With Mob Boss Bars, a server owner can attach a configurable boss health bar to chosen mobs, using a set of colours and notch styles.
What it does
Mob Boss Bars is a server-side Fabric mod that lets a server attach a custom boss bar to an entity type, so the bar shows that mob's health. Only the server needs it, and players join without installing anything. Fabric API must be installed on the server alongside it. Files cover 1.19 – 1.20.2 and the latest build, 1.1.1 for 1.20.2, was released on 2023-11-18. The code is open source under the MIT License.

How it compares
Warden Boss Bar is also a server-side Fabric mod under the MIT License, but it is limited to 1.19.3. Entity Boss Bar is client-side only, so it runs on a player's game rather than the server, and it is also limited to 1.19.3. Health Bars is open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0 and runs on the client alone, with Fabric and NeoForge files for 1.21.1 – 26.3.
