ReAnimated
by pycodder
With ReAnimated installed, menus, containers and the inventory slide and scale in place of snapping open and closed on the player's screen.
What it does
Open and close transitions are applied across the whole interface, so the main menu, the inventory, chests, furnaces, barrels and other container panels all ease into place. Closing plays the same motion in reverse. Tabs such as the Advancements and Creative inventory tabs slide out one after another, buttons dip inward when pressed and spring back, and hovered buttons grow slightly. The background dims in step with the panel instead of switching on at once, and the slot highlight glides after the cursor rather than jumping between slots. The Minecraft logo on the title screen can grow with a soft bounce or assemble letter by letter in a cascade.
The effects are set in an Animation Studio where a player picks a preset or builds a custom open or close animation using an easing-curve graph with a live preview, and changes take effect as sliders move. The mod's own options are reached through Mod Menu or the Video Settings screen, and a button for them also appears on the settings screen. ReAnimated is client-side only: only the client needs it, and servers run without it, and it does not alter gameplay. It supports Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt, with files covering 1.21.1 – 26.3 and the MIT License, so it is open source. Sodium, VulkanMod and Iris are named as compatible rendering mods.

What the author says
Smooth animations for the entire Minecraft UI. Menus, buttons, containers and the inventory slide, scale and follow your cursor — without changing how the game plays. Vanilla menus just pop in and out with no transition, and after a while that started to bug me. So I made ReAnimated — a client-side mod that adds…
