RecipeBookBlocker
by Ghost
RecipeBookBlocker removes the Recipe Book button from the inventory screen, so players cannot open the book by accident.
What it does
Clicking the Recipe Book button by mistake can open a panel that covers the inventory. This Fabric mod takes the button out of the inventory screen, which keeps the interface clean and simple. It is client-side only, so servers and other players need nothing installed. Builds exist for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file, and the code is released under All rights reserved, not open source.
