Only Snow
by TomerGamerTV
Only Snow changes the Overworld so that most of its biomes generate as snowy variants, and it is a Fabric world generation mod for 26.1.2.
What it does
Plains, forests, jungles, taigas and deserts are replaced by Snowy Plains, Snowy Taiga and their icy counterparts, while oceans, rivers, beaches and mountains take their frozen and snowy forms such as Frozen Ocean, Snowy Beach, Snowy Slopes and Frozen Peaks. Biomes are remapped as the world is sampled, so the change applies to terrain generated afterwards. Two custom world presets are included, one using Only Snow Biomes throughout and one that keeps the vanilla biome layout with snowy variants.
Biome sizes and the spawn frequencies of vanilla structures and animals are kept at standard values, so the world otherwise plays like a regular survival or creative world. The mod is server-side only, which means players join a server running it without installing anything, and a dedicated server can be configured directly through its server files. Its settings are edited in a configuration screen reachable through Mod Menu, which uses cycling button controls and needs no other library beyond Fabric API. Only Snow is published for Fabric alone, for 26.1.2, and it is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 license, so it is not open source.

How it compares
No More Snowy Biomes is a Forge mod for 1.20.1, server-side only, under All rights reserved, so it is not open source and does not run on Fabric. Snowy Trees is a Fabric mod for 1.18 – 1.18.2, server-side only, and is open source under the MIT License, so it targets an older version range. Ancient Ruins is a Fabric mod for 26.2 – 26.3, server-side only and open source under the MIT License, which covers a newer range than Only Snow.
