Xiaoan's Farming Core
by imxiaoanag
Xiaoan's Farming Core is a Fabric library mod that provides the basic items and blocks other Xiaoan's submods depend on, released under CC0 1.0 Universal.
What it does
The core mod supplies shared basics for the Xiaoan's Farming family, so submods do not each have to ship their own copies. Its blocks are used by other submods, and Xiaoan's Mooncake Fever requires it. Players who only want the farming content still need this core installed first.
Files are published for Fabric only, with builds for 1.21 and 1.21.1. The latest file is 1.0.1+1.21 for 1.21.1, dated 2025-06-02. Both sides run it, which is why servers and players alike have to install it. Sinytra Connector is mentioned by the author as a way to load Forge mods, but no Forge build is published.
The author notes Roughly Enough Items and JEI compatibility, and Farmer's Delight recipes are mentioned, though the author says these have not been widely tested. The source code and issue tracker are public, and the project is open source under CC0 1.0 Universal, which places it in the public domain.
