Starlight
ModpackThe best vanilla modpack with the fastest performance
Description
Starlight
A lightweight, dark themed Fabric modpack focused on performance, technical play, and subtle quality‑of‑life improvements. It includes mods like litematica or carpet, a lot of optimalization mods, bringing Minecraft from 30 fps to around 300 fps on my Macbook M2 Air, while not loosing quality.
This modpack is build and managed by Azalea, a CLI modpack manager tool.
