Vanilla Notebook
by Juniper
A notebook item opens in the GUI, where players can write notes and record coordinates in a vanilla-styled book.
What it does
The notebook is a small addition to the menus, styled to match the vanilla book. Players can jot down coordinates or write free-form notes inside it, and the mod adds a couple of further features on top of that core use.
Vanilla Notebook runs on the client only, so the server does not need it and players can use it on any server. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 31 release versions, 1.18 – 26.2. Forgified Fabric API, MLEM API and Sinytra Connector are required dependencies, and MLEM API must be installed alongside the mod from version 5.1.0 onward. The code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Notebook in the GUI
A notebook is added to the menus as a book that looks like the vanilla one, not a separate screen.
Coordinate notes
Players can record coordinates in the notebook to mark locations they want to return to.
Free-form writing
Notes can be written in the notebook as plain text, for any reminders the player wants to keep.
Extra features
A couple of added features sit alongside the core notebook, extending what the book can hold.

Use cases
Marking locations
A player records base or resource coordinates in the notebook while exploring a world.
Keeping reminders
A player writes building plans or task lists in the book between sessions.
Who it’s for: Players who want a note-taking book inside the game menus, on single-player worlds or any multiplayer server, since the client-only setup needs nothing on the server.
