Fabric API is the core library for the most common hooks and intercompatibility measures utilized by mods using the Fabric toolchain
This is SEPARATE from the Fabric loader! You need both for most mods!
Keep in mind the project is in early development and requires the Fabric mod loader!
can you add a feature to detect dependencies and update availability support, it help us detect which mod lack dependency from other mod/api
In reply to crest93:
These would, ideally, be handled by launchers and/or external tools; Loader's goal is to load mods (and it will list missing dependencies if things go awry - or, at least, it should), API's goal is to provide hooks and interoperability structures; update availability doesn't really fit into either very well.
What would you say are the biggest strengths of Fabric loader as opposed to Forge? Anything it can do that Forge can't?
Is it possible to install fabric + forge on minecraft 1.14.3?
In reply to TheRadmirGameChannel:
Not at this time - see https://fabricmc.net/wiki/faq:user for more information.
so wait do we use this for all 1.14.3 mods? I don't know how this works ._.
edit: I mean fabric loader and this mod

So when I press download and then open it. It will just make another copy. I'm using google chrome to open it. What do I do?
In reply to dj_monkey74:
You need to install Fabric Loader. Fabric API is just a mod.
In reply to dj_monkey74:
You drag it to your fabric mod folder. Are you using MultiMC, Vanilla Launcher or what? It doesn't launch on it's own.
Am i able to use older mods or am i only able to use mods for 1.14.3
In reply to pandaception4271:
Check the mods and the 1.14 tags they support (either in the file name, changelog or if it says 1.14 snapshot, 1.14, 1.14.1, 1.14.2, 1.14.3).
From my experience since 18w50a onwards to now it can depend on the support the mods has (like Pre-Releases and 1.14 work but 1.14.1 made it difficult for some mods to be supported so they had to adjust to that, not sure about 1.14.2/1.14.3 support difficulties though). I myself go with a version specific mindset of say if it is for 1.14.3 then I'll only download 1.14.3 supported mods, but some mods can work across 1.14.2 and 1.14.3 I'm pretty sure, you just have to find the right ones, you aren't restricted to one mod version's support like with Forge I've found. I myself could do a list that states what I've found supports what (since I list a lot of Fabric stuff on a forum daily and could add an element like that to it) but it would be tedious and most devs can tell you if it does or not usually with a comment yes, asking on the Fabric Discord, or by checking the version tags.
In short, I'd say stick with the version it's for if you want but mod support isn't restricted to just 1 version most of the time with Fabric unlike with my Forge experiences. I'm basically just saying see what works by installing and uninstalling mods and check the tags/file names to be sure and if it says the 1.14.2 supports 1.14.3 then it should work.
This is off-topic, but this may be of concern to the owners of Fabric.
Notification emails from curseforge are broken. The links in them lead to error pages. Even searching the curseforge site for "fabric" does not lead one here. I had to dig through my notifications to find this page again.
Numbered and un-numbered lists in this editor are also not working, and I'd bet much more.
Is curseforge terrible, or am I missing something?
Can you at LEAST be able to also run forge mods as well? Right now from what I can understand that you can only run fabric if you are only using mods that use fabric, meaning you can't also play mods that require forge. If I am wrong, please tell me since I haven't seen anyone talked about it. If I am not wrong, then please for the love of god let there be a way. I hate having to choose between two mods
Edit: Turns out that the mods I were trying to use were super glitchy, so you can use fabric mods and forge mods
In reply to AnnaTheKitty:
You can currenly not run fabric mods with forge mods, we have a FAQ page that will awsnwer the question in more detail. You can find that here: https://fabricmc.net/wiki/faq:user
Is there anyway to convert forge mods into fabric?
In reply to delirious_dj:
As a mod develeoper you can port a mod from forge to fabric, but there is no way to convert a mod automatically.
is 1.12.2 out
In reply to MinnyMeLeeds:
Fabric is for 1.14+, not for 1.12. There is not and will not be a 1.12 version.
In reply to MinnyMeLeeds:
Liteloader is for 1.12.2 and prior, Rift is for 1.13/1.13.2 and Fabric is for 1.14+. That's pretty much what your looking for (Liteloader). Look for Liteloader mods and you'll find some that support Fabric now do support Liteloader (Autofish, Voxel, etc. for example), but most new Fabric mods don't support Liteloader or Rift as they are strictly for Fabric. That and Fabric isn't ever going to 1.12.2, Fabric is a 1.14+ mod scene thing.
