Kotlin for Forge Mod – 1.19.4, 1.18.2+

Kotlin for Forge is a mod library that lets you write Minecraft mods using the Kotlin programming language instead of Java. It bundles the Kotlin standard library and provides several useful tools to make Kotlin modding easier on Forge.

What You Get

The mod automatically shades in the Kotlin libraries so you don’t have to bundle them yourself. It also gives you tools that make Kotlin modding cleaner and more natural.

Core Features

• KotlinLanguageProvider – Lets you use Kotlin object declarations directly as @Mod targets instead of Java class workarounds
• AutoKotlinEventBusSubscriber – Automatically loads object declarations marked with @Mod.EventBusSubscriber, making event handling much cleaner
• Kotlin event bus implementation – Works properly with KCallables and reified type parameters
• Property delegates – Sided property delegates and object holder property delegates for writing less boilerplate code
• Utility functions and constants – Common helpers to speed up development

What You Need

You’ll need Minecraft Forge installed for your Minecraft version.

Installing Kotlin for Forge is quick:

1. Install Forge for your Minecraft version
2. Download the Kotlin for Forge file for your version
3. Drop the .jar file into your .minecraft/mods folder
