Behind every great Minecraft mod ecosystem is a solid foundation, and ToadLib Mod serves exactly that role for everything created by Mr.Toad. This utility library bundles together custom configurations, entity abstractions, and a wide range of helper utilities that Mr.Toad's mods depend on to function properly. If you're running any of Mr.Toad's creations — or plan to — ToadLib is the essential backbone you'll need installed first.
Key Features
- Property & Integration Utilities — Provides shared property helpers and cross-mod integration tools that streamline how Mr.Toad's mods communicate with each other and with Minecraft's core systems.
- Block, Item & World-Gen Utilities — Offers reusable functions for registering blocks, items, and world generation features, reducing redundant code across dependent mods.
- Entity Abstractions & Utilities — Includes pre-built entity frameworks and helper methods, giving dependent mods a consistent foundation for creating and managing custom entities.
- Custom Config System — Ships with its own configuration handler, allowing each mod built on ToadLib to manage user-facing settings in a unified way.
- Java Utilities & More — Rounds out the library with general-purpose Java helpers and additional tools that simplify mod development behind the scenes.

FAQ
Do I need ToadLib if I only use one Mr.Toad mod?
Yes. ToadLib is a required dependency for all of Mr.Toad's mods regardless of how many you have installed. Without it, those mods will fail to load.
Does ToadLib add any content or features to the game on its own?
No, ToadLib is a background library that provides shared code and utilities. It does not add any blocks, items, or gameplay changes by itself.
Which mod loader should I pick for ToadLib?
Choose the same loader your other mods use. For newer Minecraft versions like 1.21.1 and above, Fabric and NeoForge have the widest ToadLib support. For older versions like 1.20.1 and below, both Forge and Fabric builds are available.
