Trinkets Client Optional
by Dev0Louis
Trinkets Client Optional is a Fabric companion for Trinkets that lets players without the Trinkets mod join a server running Trinkets.
What it does
The companion adds no new trinket content of its own. Its purpose is to let vanilla clients connect to servers that run Trinkets, so a player who does not have the client-side mod can still log in. Players who do install Trinkets keep access to its trinket features as usual.
Only the server needs the companion, which requires Trinkets as its dependency. Trinkets must be present on the server, and the companion must be installed on the server alongside it. Client-side installation is not needed for the companion to work. Files are published for Fabric, covering 1.21 and 1.21.1, with 1.2 for 1.21.1 as the latest release, and the source code is open under the MIT License.

Trinkets features kept for clients with the mod
Players who have Trinkets installed on their client can still use its features on a server running the companion.

A server with both modded and unmodified players can run trinkets for everyone who has the mod installed.

Use cases
Mixed player groups on a server
A server owner who runs Trinkets can allow friends with plain clients to join without asking them to add a mod.
Who it’s for: Server owners who run Trinkets and want players on vanilla clients to be able to join. Players with the Trinkets mod on their client are not affected in a way that requires any change on their side.
How it compares
Dimensional Inventories Extension: Trinkets is server-side only, open source under the MIT License and published for Fabric on 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, so it covers an older version range than this companion. Let Me See See runs on Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21 – 1.21.1 with the client and server both involved, and is open source under the MIT License. Poime's Mod Checker targets only 1.21.4 on Fabric, with the client and server both involved, and is open source under the MIT License.
