API Renamings

In preparation for future unobfuscated versions of the game, owo-lib is now developed using the official Mojang Mappings and relevant API elements have been renamed accordingly. Besides a number of straight-forward adaptations (like World -> Level), this also meant that the core class of owo-ui (previously Component) had to be renamed to UIComponent to avoid a name collision with net.minecraft.network.chat.Component. Related classes follow suit, e.g. ParentComponent -> ParentUIComponent, Containers -> UIContainers.

Language Extensions

In addition to Rich Translations, owo-lib now supports nested language files which help to greatly reduce repetition in language keys. Additionally, to reduce conflict potential, all of owo's language extensions are now opt-in. Check out the relevant section of the docs.

JSON5 Support

The majority of JSON files in any data/resource pack can be converted to use JSON5 when owo-lib is configured to read and convert them to JSON on-the-fly. Once again, check out the docs.

braid UI framework

Due to unforeseen technical circumstances (I did not want to remap the entire library twice), this build includes an early pre-alpha version of the upcoming braid UI framework. While reasonably well-tested and somewhat mature feature-wise, we do not consider it ready for release and we make absolutely no guarantees about API stability.

If you want to try it out or toy around with it anyways, check out the getting started guide. We'd love to get some early feedback!
