Qwikse
by Ran
Qwikse is a library mod for Fabric and Quilt that bundles several shared APIs and libraries, so other mods can depend on one package instead of many.
What it does
Qwikse gathers a set of common dependencies into one file for Fabric and Quilt. It is meant for mod developers and modpack makers who want fewer separate dependencies to track.
Installation is simple: place the file in the mods folder on Fabric or Quilt. Either side can run it, and neither side is required to have it. Builds cover 1.14.1 – 1.19.2, with snapshot builds published alongside the releases. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Bundled core libraries
Universal API Loader, Architectury API and Porting Lib are included, covering shared loader and cross-platform code.
Kotlin and standard libraries
Quilt Standard Libraries and Quilt Kotlin Libraries are bundled, along with Fabric Language Kotlin, for mods written in Kotlin.
Config support
Cloth Config and the Forge Config API Port are included, so mods can build settings screens and config files on shared code.
Public source
The MIT License covers the code, and the source and issue tracker are available for anyone who wants to report a problem.

Use cases
Modpack dependencies
A pack that needs several of the bundled libraries can install one file instead of listing each one separately.
Mod development
Developers targeting Fabric or Quilt can depend on the bundled APIs for shared code in their own mods.
Who it’s for: Mod developers working on Fabric or Quilt projects and modpack authors who want fewer dependency files in a pack.
How it compares
Fabric Language Kotlin is a Fabric-only Kotlin language adapter under the Apache License 2.0, covering 1.14 – 26.3, and either side can run it without the other. Quilt Kotlin Libraries is Quilt-only, covers 1.19 – 1.21 and is also licensed under Apache License 2.0. Kettle is for Fabric and Quilt, covers 1.17.1 – 1.20.1 and runs on client and server together.
