About

Patchouli is a mod that aims to provide easy to implement, data-driven documentation for minecraft modders and modpack makers alike.

Patchouli's systems allow any modder or modpack maker to quickly create beautiful books full of user experience enhancing features. The user-facing feature set of the mod is designed in function of research done on what features people liked from Botania's Lexica Botania.
