Hi! It's been a long time, and after much hard work and experimentation, we have completed MagicLib 0.5!
# What we do?
- We have written compatibility APIs for balancing the differences between versions. For developers maintaining multiple MC versions of mods at the same time, it is possible to ignore Mojang's changes to MC to a certain extent. You don't have to care about what Mojang has done, using the API you will easily be able to use the same code between MC versions.
- We have reimplemented I18n independent of MC and can set the list of alternate languages for MagicLib I18n. Mojang uses some tricks with I18n text to make some features of String.format unavailable, which is usually annoying.
- Compatible with QuiltLoader.
# Future prospects
- Enhanced I18n server-side features.
- Stand-alone compatible module (only conceived).
- Unfortunately, there is currently no documentation for the Compat API, which we will (probably) explain in a later development
# Note:
- A template for module development using MagicLib is available: https://github.com/plusls/magic-mod-template
