Description
## This is a Config API for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt.
It has a Config Screen, which is automatically added, if the specific mod uses this as config system.
This is a "core" mod, specifically designed for multiloader projects. It allows you to create easily new configs, for Client, Common and Server, in the style of Forge's and NeoForge's Config System.
### Why you should use this instead of Forge's and NeoForge's Config System?
- Automatically adds a fully functional Config Screen
- You can use more methods like getComments(), getKey(), getRange(), etc.
- It's cross-platform for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt

For developer
1. Open your build.gradle
2. Add this plugin to your other plugins
- ```
plugins {
id 'io.github.0ffz.github-packages' version '1.2.+'
}
```
3. Next step is, to add this repository:
- ```
repositories {
maven githubPackage.invoke("Craftjakob/Config-API")
}
```
4. After that, you can add a dependency and choose one of these implementations for your project. (If you can not use 'modImplementation' use 'compileOnly' and 'runtimeOnly')
- ```
dependencies {
modImplementation "com.craftjakob:configapi-common:${mc_version}-${configapi_version}"
modImplementation "com.craftjakob:configapi-fabric:${mc_version}-${configapi_version}"
modImplementation "com.craftjakob:configapi-forge:${mc_version}-${configapi_version}"
modImplementation "com.craftjakob:configapi-neoforge:${mc_version}-${configapi_version}"
modImplementation "com.craftjakob:configapi-quilt:${mc_version}-${configapi_version}"
}
```
5. Finally, you can reload your build.gradle.
