Common Capabilities - Universal Capabilities for Mods
This mod expands interaction possibilities between various modifications through the Forge Capabilities system. It does not add new content to the game but serves as a connecting link, improving compatibility of existing mods.
Originally these functions were part of Integrated Dynamics, but were separated into an independent project so that other mods could use them without needing dependency on a specific mod.

Additional Features
The mod delegates processing of energy, items and fluids from item entities and items in frames to the entities themselves. Also provides Ingredients Components API - an abstraction layer for working with items, fluids and energy in a universal way. All functions can be disabled through configuration files.
Common Capabilities is responsible for registering capabilities from the Common Capabilities API and provides standard implementations of these capabilities for various mods.
