Cacti (Categorical Creative Inventory)
Minecraft Java mod. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForge
Cacti, short for CAtegorical CreaTive Inventory, redesigns the creative inventory to enable more immediate access to mods' creative tabs. When many mods are installed that add custom creative tabs it becomes cumbersome to page between several tabs while using the creative menu, to resolve this Cacti groups every mods' tabs into their own category. These categories are displayed as tabs on the side of the menu.
For mods with many tabs, Cacti provides the ability for them to categorize their own tabs with the Cacti API.
Configuration
