Frequently Anticipated Questions

Do I need to install this client-side?

No, it runs entirely server-side and vanilla clients can connect to servers with only this mod installed

Will I still see the formatting though?

Yes, the server will format the text and broadcast it to all players in its formatted form

Will you add [insert feature]?

Maybe. If it's in the Planned style support section, probably at some point. If it's not, submit a feature request on the GitHub issues page or my Discord server and I'll consider it
