Simple Notes
by Pyrotonic
Simple Notes lets players create, save and edit text files from inside Minecraft, without leaving the game.
What it does
Players can write notes in the game, keep them as text files and open them again to edit. The notes are stored in the game and need no outside editor. Simple Notes is a Fabric mod for the 1.20.4 – 1.21.4 range, with files for 1.20.4, 1.20.6, 1.21.1, 1.21.3 and 1.21.4. It is client-side only, so servers do not need it. It requires Fabric API and oωo (owo-lib). Released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only, it is open source, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Create notes in game
Players can start a new text file from within Minecraft and write its contents directly in the game.
Save and reopen files
Notes are saved as text files so they can be opened and read again later.
Edit existing text
Saved notes can be changed at any time, with edits written back to the same file.
