Web chat is a client only mod giving you access to the chat of the server you are in through a browser. Allowing you to chat with other players while having minecraft in the background. Great for things like semi-afk farming and similar things!

Features

  • Access chat through any web browser.
  • Full support for Minecraft's text formatting (colors, bold, italic, etc.)
  • Clickable URLs in chat messages.
  • Chat history is stored and available when you are on a server and open chat in a browser.
  • Tab notification for new messages when the browser isn't focused.
  • Fully client side, should work on any server.
  • Ping support for your username & configurable keywords.

Availability

  • Minecraft version: 1.21.1
  • Mod loader: Fabric only

While the mod might work on newer Minecraft versions (honestly not sure, there is an issue open for this), chat message rendering isn't guaranteed to work correctly.

There are no plans to support other mod loaders.

Usage

Requirements

Installation

  1. Install the mod from Modrinth or grab the latest release from GitHub.
  2. Start minecraft.
  3. Join a server.
  4. Go to localhost:8080 on the same computer, or use your computer's local IP address (like 192.168.1.x:8080) from other devices on your network.
  5. Start chatting.

Settings

Message settings

  • Ping on Username - This will ping the browser window any time a player's username appears in the chat.
  • Extra Ping keywords - This will ping the browser window any time one of these words appear in the chat.

Network settings

  • HTTP Port - Port number used to serve the web interface. 8080 by default.

Security & Privacy

This mod turns minecraft in a small web server on your computer that's only accessible locally (localhost) on your network. This means that you can access it on a different device on your network, but not from outside the internet. No data is sent over the internet beyond your normal Minecraft traffic.

Important: This mod is designed for local use only. Do not expose the web chat port to the internet. If you need remote access, setup a VPN to your home network instead.
