What is Composer?

Composer is a general-purpose Fabric library mod developed under Project Codex. It provides shared systems, utilities, and architectural building blocks used across multiple mods, with a focus on clean APIs, long-term stability, and multi-version support.

Composer does not add gameplay content on its own (except for a plushie). It exists to support other mods at runtime and during development.

For more details, take a look at the wiki!
Information like style and contributing guidelines are also there!

Old development usage docs # Development Usage

If you want to use Composer as a library in your mod, add the Composer Maven repository and Cardinal Components repository to your build file, then add Composer as a dependency.

Replace (latest_version) with the latest Composer version compatible with your Minecraft version.

Gradle (Groovy DSL) - build.gradle 
# gradle.properties
composer_version = (latest_version)

// build.gradle

repositories {
    // Before 3.0
    maven {
        name = "Composer Maven"
        url = "https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/lilbrocodes/composer-reloaded/maven/"
    }
    
    // After 3.0

        name = "Composer Maven"
        url = "https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/project-codex/composer/maven/"
