Nuggets API

by Titan1um

Nuggets API, a Fabric library for Minecraft 1.20.1, adds nugget items and the Nugget Template used to craft them.

FabricClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1

What it does

The library introduces a set of small material items, each called a nugget, made from common resources such as wood, stone, coal, redstone, quartz, amethyst and lapis lazuli. Each nugget is crafted by combining a Nugget Template with one matching material, so the template acts as the required ingredient for every nugget recipe. Players who collect these pieces can use them as a base for other crafting in mods that read them.

The Small Smithing Template is a related item that appears in bastion remnants, and nine of them can be combined back into a regular smithing template. It is intended for upgrading diamond gear to netherite with less material than a full template requires. The Emerald Chunk is listed among the mod's items as well.

Nuggets API is published only for Fabric and only for Minecraft 1.20.1. It is a client and server mod, so the server and every player need it. The code is open source under the MIT License, and public links exist for the source, the issue tracker and a wiki.
