FabricClient-side onlyGNU General Public License v3.0 or laterOpen source26.1.2

What it does

The mod turns Minecraft into a Wayland compositor, so apps launched from the game open their windows completely within the world. Windows can be dragged and dropped from one to another, and a video player can be pinned to the HUD. Fabric API is required. Only the client needs the mod, and servers need nothing extra, since a player sees only their own windows. The source code is published under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, and the latest Fabric file, 2.1.0, targets 26.1.2.

  2. Drag and drop between windows

Questions

Does waylandcraft work on a server?

It is client-side only, so servers can run without it and players need it installed on their own client.
