I,
thx for your dashboard and plugins,

That would be very helpful, after all there are still more Forge than Fabric servers at the moment.
Especially when you go back in the versions you get to the point where Fabric is not available at all, so you only have Forge as an option there

What Forge version are you planning to support?

@Cubxity Is there anything we will focos to or notice when we are developing?

I would recommend focusing on stability and compatibility. Look at other platform implementations as an example.

We are now doing technical research.

We plan to make it as more portable as possible.

As we all know, forge may make brake-change every version. So we are plan to select a few typical version, such as a version which is lots of mods base on, or a version which is just break-changed.

So after research done, I will let you know.

Fork is not a thing at the moment. I would really appreciate a forge version. If there is fabric how come there isn't forge?

i have no idea to let the build step works on 1.19, could you please help me to let it go well?

If there is fabric how come there isn't forge?

Forge's build system is generally more complex than Fabric, thus requiring more effort to maintain. This is especially true if the goal is to support multiple versions.

@ExerciseBook has an opn PR/fork for Forge support that you could take a look at.

For those wanting unifiedmetrics on 1.20.1 forge, you can download Sinytra Connector and then download the fabric version of unifiedmetrics (I'm using dev build 0.3.x fabric). You'll also need the kotlin language mod for fabric. Works well for me.

Maybe it should be mentioned in the README at https://github.com/Cubxity/UnifiedMetrics?tab=readme-ov-file#compatibility that Forge can work with Syntra connector
