This mod implements ViaVersion on Fabric servers and clients, allowing you to connect to different Minecraft versions.

It can be installed on Legacy Fabric 1.8.9 and 1.12.2, and Fabric 1.14.4-1.20.4.

If you are using the latest Minecraft version and care about the gameplay being more enjoyable/functional, you may want to check ViaFabricPlus out.

Requires Fabric API for Minecraft 1.14+.
