RecipeBook API
Provides a simple-to-use API to create recipe book support for custom recipe types
About this Mod
📘 Description
If you use Fabric or Jared's MultiLoader-Template (like me), then there's not really a way to add recipe book support for custom recipe types. This mod solves that issue by adding a simple system that works with vanilla and allows for some customization
