topeatLib
by Top4eat21
topeatLib is a library for Minecraft mods on Fabric and Forge, providing shared utility code that other mods can build on.
What it does
The library groups general helpers for mod projects: geometry, interpolation and noise generation, plus other number-crunching routines. It also includes specialized collections for cases where vanilla data structures are not enough, and threading primitives for parallel workloads.
Further areas cover lightweight event dispatching for custom event pipelines, packet serialization and channel management for networking, and reflection utilities with pooling, versioning, async execution and timing. Its stated purpose is a central shared layer, so a developer who writes the same utility class across several mods can keep it in one place. Its author notes that it needs Java 17 or newer, and that it has no dependencies beyond the mod loader.
Files are published for Fabric and Forge, both for 1.19.2 and 1.20.1. Either side can run the library, and neither needs it, so it can be present on a client, a server, both or neither. The code is covered by a custom license. Required by BeansAC.
