A library mod developers use to bring Forge mods to Fabric.
58.3 of the 71 points that apply = 82 out of 100. The points above are rounded to whole numbers.
Porting Lib is a developer library that helps adapt Forge mod functionality for Fabric and Quilt, rather than adding player-facing content on its own. Its modules provide tools for entity attributes and multipart entities, block and item extensions, configuration, data generation, client and level events, registries, and recipe and loot handling. Other modules support fluids and storage transfers, custom model loading and rendering, OBJ models, GUI utilities, tags, and entity data serializers.
Written from Modrinth , CurseForge and the GitHub README . How we write it
Changes the game's code in 16 areas, as a library other mods build on: Blocks and fluidsChanges 45 game code files in this area: how blocks, fluids and redstone work., Mobs and their behaviorChanges 42 game code files in this area: mobs, animals, villagers, projectiles and how they move and act., Inventory and itemsChanges 39 game code files in this area: items, chests and other containers, crafting and enchanting., Rendering and graphicsChanges 29 game code files in this area: drawing mobs, items, particles and textures on screen., Server and world logicChanges 17 game code files in this area: the world, commands, scoreboards, saved data and game rules., Game data and resourcesChanges 14 game code files in this area: recipes, tags, advancements, language files and other game data., World renderingChanges 13 game code files in this area: drawing the terrain, sky, clouds and weather., User interfaceChanges 10 game code files in this area: menus, screens, tooltips, the chat window and the in-game overlay., PlayerChanges 9 game code files in this area: your character: movement, abilities, hunger and controls., World generationChanges 7 game code files in this area: terrain, biomes and structures made when new land is created., Networking and multiplayerChanges 6 game code files in this area: connections, the server list and what is sent between your game and a server., Game coreChanges 6 game code files in this area: the main loop, lighting and other code the whole game uses., Chunk loading and storageChanges 5 game code files in this area: how the game loads, tracks, saves and unloads chunks., Game optionsChanges 2 game code files in this area: settings, key bindings and the option screens., SoundChanges 1 game code file in this area: playing sounds, music and the sound engine. and Other game codeChanges 1 game code file in this area: game code that is not in one of the areas above..

Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.

No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
We found nothing it sends
We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images and code history and found none.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
