What It Does
Main Menu Credits lets you display custom text on the Minecraft title screen. This is useful for modpack creators who want to show credits, version info, or links before a player starts a game. The text isn't static. You can add click events to it, just like you would in a chat message. If a click event is present, the text gets underlined when you hover over it. This makes it clear to the user that the text is interactive.
Who It's For
This mod is primarily for modpack authors and server owners. If you're building a pack and want to give credit to contributors or provide a link to a Discord server or website, this tool handles that on the main menu. It is a client-side mod. You don't need it installed on the server for it to work, but players need it on their client to see the text. It's categorized as a utility and quality-of-life tool, as well as a library and API.
Compatibility
The mod supports three mod loaders: Fabric, NeoForge, and Quilt. It has lots of supported Minecraft versions.

Usage and Licensing
The project includes a wiki for usage information. You should consult that wiki to learn how to configure the text and click events. The mod is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. This means you can use, modify, and distribute the code, provided you comply with the terms of that specific license. The latest repository release is v1.2.0, which updated support to Minecraft 1.20.5.
