Shadi Smith
by licorice45
Shadi Smith gives smithing tables a new recipe type that applies enchantments to items, with lapis lazuli as the fixed addition item.
What it does
Shadi Smith gives smithing tables a recipe type that puts an enchantment onto a weapon or tool, using a smithing template as the base. The example recipe in the author notes takes a paper smithing template and outputs the given weapon with mending added on top. The addition item is always lapis lazuli. The mod adds no items or blocks of its own.
Recipes of this type are meant to be written in datapacks. Shadi Smith is published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, under the MIT License, and its source code is public. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Smithing Template Viewer is client-side only and open source under the MIT License, with files for 1.21 – 26.1.2. Shadi Smith requires both sides, so players and servers must each run it.
