Squeedometer
by edgeburn
Squeedometer shows the player's current speed as a text readout on the screen, configurable in km/h or blocks per second.
What it does
The HUD readout sits in a screen corner and can display horizontal speed alongside vertical speed. The speed text changes colour as the player accelerates or decelerates, and the colours can be set in the config. The unit switches between kilometres per hour and blocks per second, so the readout matches how the player wants to measure movement.
Only the client needs the mod, so a player can add it to a single-player world or a multiplayer client without any change on the server. It runs on Fabric for 1.19.4 – 1.21.1, with the latest file, 1.1.9 for 1.21.1, released 2024-06-23. Cloth Config API, Fabric API and Mod Menu are required, and the code is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license. Its development continues across modern Fabric versions, while earlier forks of the original Forge release are largely no longer maintained.

Use cases
Tracking elytra flight
Players comparing elytra speeds or tuning rockets can read the speed and vertical speed as they fly.
Measuring travel
Builders and explorers who want distances in blocks per second can monitor their movement across a world.
Who it’s for: Players who want a speed readout on the HUD, on singleplayer worlds or on multiplayer servers, since the mod is client-side only and the server does not need it.

What the author says
This mod adds a configurable speedometer to your Minecraft HUD in either km/h or blocks/second. This is the one of many forks of the original 1.12.2 Forge mod, but is as far as I am the only one who is actively maintaining the mod for modern versions of Minecraft for Fabric.
