Not Enough Tooltips (NET)
by Comma-lol
Not Enough Tooltips shows item statistics in a small animated popup whenever a player switches items in the main hand.
What it does
Holding a tool or weapon in the main hand brings up a popup with its attack damage, durability and enchantments, so players can read these values without opening the inventory. The popup fades in and out with a smooth animation and is drawn with native Minecraft rendering, keeping the interface uncluttered.
The mod is a Fabric client mod: only the client needs it, and servers run without it. It requires Fabric API and is published for Minecraft 1.21 – 26.1.2, with 15 release versions and a latest file for 26.1.2. The code is released under the MIT License, and the project is not open source in the usual sense of a public repository; an issue tracker is the only public link.
Key features
Durability readout
The current durability of a held item is shown in the popup, so a pickaxe's remaining uses are visible while mining.
Attack damage display
Attack damage of the selected weapon or tool appears in the same popup, updating each time the main hand changes.
Enchantment list
Enchantments on the held item are listed in the popup, so applied effects can be checked without opening the item's tooltip.
Fade animation
The popup fades out after a short delay, leaving the screen clear during normal play.

Use cases
Checking tool wear while mining
A player can glance at the popup to see how many uses a pickaxe has left before switching to a spare.
Comparing weapons in combat
Switching between swords or axes shows each item's attack damage, so the stronger option can be picked at a glance.
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who want item statistics visible from the hotbar, without opening the inventory or reading each tooltip.
How it compares
Show Durability is also a Fabric client mod, released under the MIT License and open source, with files for 1.19 – 26.3. Nbt Display is open source under the MIT License, client-side only and built for 1.21.5 – 26.3, and it shows NBT data rather than the popup described here. Higher Enchants is a Fabric mod that runs on client and server, under All rights reserved, not open source, and covers 1.21.1 – 26.3.
