The story
A Fabric mod that puts a resource pack on a key. Press it and the pack you chose switches on or off, without digging through the menus. Small idea, real users: it has been downloaded more than five thousand times on Modrinth.

One key
You pick a pack once, from the mod's settings or with a button it adds to the vanilla resource pack screen. From then on a key, R by default, toggles it. The pack loads in the background, so the game does not freeze while it switches, and a small notification tells you when it is on, off or still loading. A second key, unbound until you set it, opens a quick menu to toggle, pick another pack, mute the notifications or apply the pack on startup.
A jar for every version
Minecraft changes its internals with every minor version, and a mod that claims to support many of them at once is a mod that breaks on some. So every Minecraft version gets its own jar, built against the exact Fabric API, Cloth Config and Mod Menu of that version, from one codebase. Two JDKs live side by side: Java 21 for the 1.21 line, Java 25 for 26.x.

Build
A script walks a matrix of versions, each with its own mappings and dependencies, and builds one jar per Minecraft version.

Check
A compatibility check runs on each line before anything goes out.
- 3
Publish
A publishing script uploads every jar to Modrinth with its game version, dependencies and release notes, from a manifest instead of by hand.
