No UI on Tab
by Andre601
No UI on Tab is a client-side Fabric and Quilt utility that hides the HUD while the player holds the Tab key, leaving only the tab list visible.
What it does
While the Tab key is held, the mod hides interface elements such as the hotbar, chat and scoreboard, so the tab list is the only thing on screen. Releasing the key brings the rest of the interface back. The change affects only the local game window and needs no setup beyond installing the mod.
Environment: only the client needs it, since the mod changes nothing on a server. Files are published for Fabric and Quilt, for 1.21 and 1.21.1, with 1.1.0 as the latest build for 1.21.1. The source code is open source under the MIT License, and an issue tracker is linked from the project page.
Key features
Hides the HUD on Tab
Holding Tab removes the hotbar, chat, scoreboard and other interface elements from view, leaving the player list alone.
Restores the interface on release
Letting go of Tab returns the hidden elements to their usual places without any reload.
Shows the tab list
The player list stays visible while Tab is held, so players can see names and details without the surrounding clutter.

Use cases
Screenshots and recording
Holding Tab gives a view of the world with the interface out of the frame, which suits captures of builds or scenes.
Reading the player list
On a busy server, the tab list can be read on its own while the chat and scoreboard stay out of the way.
Who it’s for: Players who take screenshots or video, and players who want the tab list without the rest of the interface around it, on Fabric or Quilt.

Both change the tab list or scoreboard rather than hiding the whole interface, which is the function this mod covers.
