Mantle is a Minecraft Java Edition mod that provides shared code for Forge mods. It is designed for mod developers who use Forge to create their mods. This mod helps to simplify the development process by providing a common set of functions that can be used across multiple mods.
Mantle can be loaded using Forge or NeoForge loaders. It is a library mod, which means it is used by other mods to provide additional functionality. As a library mod, it is typically used on both the client and server side, and it may require other mods or dependencies to function properly.
