FAQ
Can I include JEI in my mod pack?
Of course!
Can JEI run client-only, or with a vanilla server?
[1.21.1 or lower] Yes, with some features disabled:
- The "Move items into crafting area" [+] buttons.
- Cheating in items that have lots of NBT data.
- Deleting items.
[1.21.2+] Since Minecraft 1.21.2, recipes are stored on the server and not the client. Please install JEI and NeoForge/Fabric on the server to sync recipes to the client.
