Sprite library
by JustKorzhik
Sprite Library is a Fabric utility for finding, viewing and copying sprite textures from a menu in the game.
What it does
Sprite Library gives texture resource pack creators, plugin mod developers, server administrators and interface designers one place to work with sprites. Instead of searching the texture files by hand, a user opens a menu that lists sprites, previews them and copies them to the clipboard. The mod also copies sprite references as JSON or MiniMessage display text.
The mod runs on Fabric for version 1.21.11 only, and it is required on the client alone, so a player's own game is enough and a server does not need it. It is released under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source. The first file was published on 2026-07-20 and the latest Fabric file, 1.1, was published on 2026-08-09.
