WebNowCraft

by pa81

WebNowCraft puts the track currently playing in WebNowPlaying onto the Minecraft HUD, and lets a player move and resize that display.

FabricForgeNeoForgeClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.16.5 – 1.21.4

What it does

The mod draws a HUD overlay that shows the song playing in a browser or desktop player. Track data comes from the WebNowPlaying extension, which must be enabled in Spotify through Spicetify CLI before the overlay has anything to display. Fabric API is required, and ClothConfig API supplies the options screen where the display is adjusted.

A player sets the offset from the screen edge, the HUD size between 50% and 200%, and the anchor corner, which can be top-left, top-right or another corner. The text color can be chosen freely. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across five release versions, 1.16.5 – 1.21.4, and the code is released under the MIT License as open source. Only the player's game needs it, and servers run without it.

Key features

  1. Track display on the HUD

    The current song from WebNowPlaying is drawn as an overlay on the in-game screen while the game runs.

  2. Position controls

    X and Y offsets move the display away from the screen edge, so it can sit clear of other HUD elements.

  3. Adjustable size

    The HUD can be scaled between 50% and 200% of its default size.

  4. Anchor and color settings

    An anchor choice places the display in a chosen corner, and its color can be changed to any value.

How it compares

Full comparison

Armor HUD is a Fabric-only, client-side mod for 1.20.1 – 1.21.11 under the MIT License, so it covers armor display rather than a music overlay. Status Effect HUD is also Fabric-only and client-side, for 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, released under the MIT License, and shows active effects instead of tracks. Choose by the information needed on screen, since these two do not show playing music.
