Insight
This project adds a clean, heads-up display to the top of the screen to identify the block you are looking at and whether you can harvest it.

Minecraft is full of blocks that look alike. Is that Stone or Infested Stone? Is that Deepslate Coal or Deepslate Iron? Can my current pickaxe actually break that Obsidian, or am I about to waste 10 seconds?
Insight is the answer.
It is a zero-clutter, ultra-lightweight information HUD designed for players who hate bulky interfaces. When you look at a block, a sleek, translucent bar appears at the top center of your screen delivering exactly the information you need, and nothing you don't.
Features:
Instant Identification: Clearly displays the localized name of any block you look at.
Harvest Check: A crisp Green Checkmark (✔) appears if your tool can harvest the block. A Red X (✘) appears if it can't. Never waste durability on the wrong block again.
Adaptive Readability: The text sits on a dynamic, semi-transparent background, ensuring you can read it easily against bright skies or dark caves.
Vanilla+ Design: It feels like a feature Mojang forgot to add. It doesn't clutter your screen with numbers or data you don't need in the moment.
Client-Side Only: Install it on your machine and use it on any server without needing it installed on the server side.
