Bring Your Text to Life with Smooth RGB Gradients!

What is GradientAPI?
GradientAPI is a lightweight, Adventure-based utility library that lets developers easily apply smooth RGB gradients to Minecraft text — perfect for chat messages, titles, menus, or anywhere you use Component!

✅ No dependencies used other than Adventure
✅ Java 17+ compatible
✅ Battle-tested across multiple projects
✅ Works in any plugin with Adventure API

Installation
If you are a user (you downloaded a plugin that needs this):

Download the latest file.
Drop it into your server's /plugins/ folder.
Restart the server. Done!

✅You do not need to configure anything. The plugin using GradientAPI will handle the rest.

‍ If you are a developer:
Maven Setup

drop the JAR into your /src/main/libs/ folder

Code (YAML):

<dependency >
<groupId>com.idebugger</groupId >
<artifactId>gradient-api</artifactId >
<version>1.0</version >
<scope>system</scope >
<systemPath>$ {project.basedir }/src/main/libs/gradient-api-1.0.jar</systemPath >
</dependency>

Or mark it as provided in your IDE/project .

️ Usage
Method

Code (Java):

import com.idebugger.gradientAPI.GradientAPI ;
Component result = GradientAPI. gradient ( "My Fancy Text", List. of ( Color. RED, Color. ORANGE, Color. YELLOW ) ) ;

Each character of the string will be smoothly colorized across the gradient you define!

Fancy Example (Multiple Colors)

Code (Java):

import com.idebugger.gradientAPI.GradientAPI ;
import java.awt.Color ;

List <Color > primaryColors = List. of (
new Color ( 102, 255, 255 ), // Aqua Glow (#66FFFF)
new Color ( 0, 191, 255 ), // Deep Sky Blue (#00BFFF)
new Color ( 0, 128, 255 ) // Vivid Blue (#0080FF)
) ;

Component result = GradientAPI. gradient ( "Ocean Breeze", primaryColors ) ;

The text "Ocean Breeze" will flow from bright aqua to deep sky blue to vivid blue.

And to show it to player:

Code (Java):

import net.kyori.adventure.text.Component ;
player. sendMessage ( Component. text ( ). append (first_gradient ). append ( Component. text ( "any other text messages if required" ) ). append (second_gradient_if_required_etc ). build ( ) ) ;

API Summary

Code (Java):

public static Component gradient ( String text, List <Color > gradientColors )

text: The string to colorize (each character will get a color)
gradientColors: List of java.awt.Color to transition between

Minimum of 2 colors required.

Why Use GradientAPI?
Because plain colors are boring, and this gives your plugin:

✅ Eye-catching style
✅ Professional polish
✅ Fully Adventure-compatible text generation
✅ Reusable across all your plugins
