Dreamcraft Network Announcements API

A lightweight, plug-and-play announcement system for Minecraft NeoForge mods.

📋 Overview

The Dreamcraft Network Announcements API is a modular library designed to allow Minecraft mods to display dynamic, server-driven announcements directly to players. Perfect for network-wide events, maintenance notices, updates, or community highlights—without requiring a mod update.

• ✅ Asynchronous loading (no main-thread lag)
• ✅ Elegant, customizable in-game UI
• ✅ Clickable links with hover effects
• ✅ Session management (show once per launch)
• ✅ Full NeoForge 1.21.1+ / 1.21.x compatibility
