WASD Tweaks
by artemninzja
WASD Tweaks is a Fabric client utility that bundles small quality-of-life adjustments for new players, including Edge Guard, Lava Guard, automatic sprinting and SmartLadder.
What it does
Each tweak targets a common frustration, such as stepping off ledges, walking into lava or sprinting by hand. The mod gathers these helpers into one package, so a novice can use them without setting up each feature separately. It runs on the client alone, so only the player installs it and servers do not need it. Fabric API is required, and the mod is published for Fabric only, with the 0.1 build for 1.21.6.
Key features
Edge Guard
Stops the player from walking off an edge by accident, which helps with careful movement near drops.
Lava Guard and tool swapping
Lava Guard warns or prevents stepping into lava, and a tool swap feature picks a suitable tool when a block is mined.
Automatic sprinting and SmartLadder
Automatic sprinting keeps the player running without holding the key, and SmartLadder makes climbing ladders more predictable.

Some features of this mod may conflict with the rules of certain public Minecraft servers. Before using it freely on a server, make sure that tweaks like these are allowed by the server rules or by the administration. This is my first mod, by the way.
