Patchouli
About Patchouli Mod
Patchouli is a specialized solution for creating documentation in Minecraft, aimed at mod developers and pack creators. The main goal of the project is to provide a convenient tool for creating interactive guides and reference materials without the need for coding.
The system is built on principles of usability and incorporates experience from working with the popular Lexica Botania encyclopedia from the Botania mod. This allows for creating high-quality books with rich functionality that enhances the user's gaming experience.
