YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL): A Modern Configuration Library

YetAnotherConfigLib, also known as YACL, is a Minecraft library mod that helps other mods create better configuration menus. It does not add new mobs, blocks, items, or gameplay by itself.

YACL is mainly used as a required dependency for many Minecraft mods. If a mod asks for YetAnotherConfigLib, you need to install it for that mod to work correctly.

Modrinth describes YACL as a builder-based configuration library for Minecraft, while CurseForge lists it as a library and utility mod by isXander.
