YAML Config Mod 1.21–26.3

YAML Config is a Minecraft mod developed to allow other mod developers to manage configuration settings using the YAML file format. Its specific purpose is to provide a configuration system with a user-friendly GUI, support for various data types, and robust networking for client-server synchronization. Key features include the utilization of the readable YAML file format, a GUI for players to edit settings, and extensive data type support for primitive types, collections, and date/time. It also provides server-client synchronization, validation, and error handling to ensure configurations meet requirements.

The mod is designed for seamless integration with existing modpacks. Configurations can be client-side, specific to the installing client and not shared; server-side, specific to dedicated servers and not used in single-player worlds or synced; or common, shared between clients and servers. Common configurations can be edited via the in-game GUI or by directly editing the config file and restarting the server. Mod developers can also register custom data types using the IDataType interface and implement custom serializers. No specific requirements for its operation are stated beyond being a Minecraft mod.
