About this Mod

Dreamcraft Network Announcements API

A lightweight, plug-and-play announcement system for Minecraft NeoForge mods.

📋 Overview

The Dreamcraft Network Announcements API is a modular library designed to allow Minecraft mods to display dynamic, server-driven announcements directly to players. Perfect for network-wide events, maintenance notices, updates, or community highlights—without requiring a mod update.

This API handles:

✅ Remote JSON-based announcement fetching
✅ Asynchronous loading (no main-thread lag)
✅ Elegant, customizable in-game UI
✅ Clickable links with hover effects
✅ Session management (show once per launch)
✅ Full NeoForge 1.21.1+ / 1.21.x compatibility

✨ Features

🌐 Remote Configuration	Fetch announcements from any HTTPS endpoint. Update messages instantly without rebuilding your mod.
🎨 Polished UI	Fancy gradient borders, glowing effects, styled header/footer, and responsive layout.
🔗 Interactive Links	Embed clickable buttons or footer links that open browsers directly from-game.
⚡ Non-Blocking	Uses `CompletableFuture` for async HTTP requests—zero impact on game performance.
🔄 Session Control	Announcements display once per game session. Reset via `AnnouncementManager.resetSession()`.
🧩 Easy Integration	Just add the JAR to your `libs/` folder and call one method in your title screen handler.
