Allow the ease creation of guides for minecraft mods with no hard-dependency.
About this Mod
GuidebookAPI is currently under a rewrite!

GuidebookApi is a mod that allow the ease creation of guides with no hard dependency.
Some of the features of this mod are:
Modify the guides has you want! You can change what guides spawn, if you want all the guides to spawn or the color of these!
Add or change content based on the configuration or assets of the mod.
Add custom page types, like recipes or any type of page do you need/want!
All the guides are made mostly in java-code instead of external files like other mods!
All this with no-hard dependency, this means the mods with a guide can work without the mod installed!

- Original Mod: TehNut and Tombenpotter.
- This mod: WonejoMB/Leo

GuidebookApi started ( and is ) a fork of the GuideAPI mod made by TehNut and Tombenpotter.
Currently the mod has some changes to the mod's internal API, but some of the code base is still there so if you are a developer you can see the ExampleBook on github or you can see the Developer Wiki of the original mod. ( Preferred see both because there are some features of the original mod removed or replaced with others )
There are other versions of GuidebookAPI but aren't here ( because of problems with the account here ) so the older versions of GuidebookAPI are on curseforge!.
