About this Mod

Where Are You From?

Give credit where creditors do

A serverside Fabric mod that adds the corresponding mod name to items in the lore.

Why would you need it?

If you host a serverside modpack (via PolyMC for example) mods like REI won't display the right mod name inside item tooltips; this mod replicates the intended behaviour, even for Vanilla clients.
