PrettyMarker
by imkrqte
Players who want to flag places on a map can use PrettyMarker, a Fabric mod that creates markers with custom icons, names, colors and display settings.
What it does
Markers can be created in the world and given a chosen icon, a name and a color. Existing markers can be edited afterward, so a position or its appearance can change without placing a new one. A display menu controls how markers are shown.
The mod is client-side only, so a player installs it alone and servers need nothing. Markers can also be shared through a server plugin, which lets a group see the same set of points. PrettyMarker is a Fabric mod for game versions 1.21.11 – 26.3, with 1.0.3 for 26.3 as the latest file. It is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
Files exist for 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3. Players on any of these builds can use the same marker system.

Use cases
Coordinating with a group

Who it’s for: Players who want to label places in the world and keep track of several points at once, and server owners who want to share a common set of markers with their players.
How it compares
BlueMap Banners is a Fabric mod for 1.21.1 – 26.3 that is server-side only and open source under the MIT License, so it runs on the server instead of the player's client. Marker Cubes (A) is a server-required mod for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, covering 1.21 – 26.1.2, and it is not open source. PrettyMarker differs from both by being client-side on Fabric alone, with its own marker tools and a server plugin for sharing.
