📋 About This Mod
A library for creating custom entity GUIs that replace (or extend) vanilla ones. Provides a barebones frame with title, close button, entity preview, and status.
Entity GUI Library is a lightweight framework for modders to build custom entity GUIs, replacing or extending vanilla interfaces. It provides a basic frame with title, close button, entity preview, and status. With modest endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche tool for developers, not end-users.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Lightweight framework—doesn't bloat your mod list with heavy UI systems.
- Recent update (Dec 2025) shows active maintenance, so it's not abandoned.
- Simple API for devs—barebones frame means less overhead to learn.
⚠️ Cons
- End-user value is zero—it's a dev tool, not a gameplay mod.
- Low endorsement count (39) suggests limited community testing or adoption.
- Compatibility risk: as a library, it may conflict with other UI mods that alter vanilla GUIs.
This is for mod developers who want to create custom entity GUIs without reinventing the wheel. If you're a player looking for new UI features, this isn't for you—it's a building block, not a finished product.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're a modder, check the mod's documentation or source code to understand how to integrate the library into your own mod.
- Since it's a library, you'll need to add it as a dependency in your mod's metadata, not just drop it in your mods folder.
- Test your custom GUI with vanilla entities first to ensure the frame works before adding complex features.
