Hello everyone,
I have some big news: HoloEasy has undergone major and breaking changes.

The philosophy of HoloEasy has always been to make creating holograms easy using packets. Over time, however, I made the mistake of overengineering the library and also rewriting it in Kotlin.

Rewriting it in Kotlin was not an issue in terms of the language itself, but the additional weight of Kotlin’s standard library can be a significant factor, and it also worsens interoperability for Java developers.

Here are the most important changes:

• The core has been rewritten in Java.
  
  
• Since the first release, I have always maintained compatibility with ProtocolLib, but I now believe it is time to move on: HoloEasy is now 100% integrated with PacketEvents for better stability.
  
  
• The API is now more intuitive and simpler, while maintaining an OOP-oriented approach for holograms.
  
  
• DisplayTextLine and DisplayBlockLine have been added.
  
  
• Each line can now represent a different value for each player.

More information on website changelog.

Added PacketEvents experiemental support.

More information can be found on GitHub.

- ItemLine has now become a BlockLine and allows you to add blocks as before
- New experimental ItemLine (required by the old #8) allows you to add items such as torch, diamond, and so on.
- ItemLine in holograms is not yet integrated into the standard loader, you will need SingletonLoader if you use Holograms, and it must be the only line
- ItemLine also allows you to set a 'handRotation', i.e. the rotation of the arm of the armorstand that holds the item.
- Fixed Placeholders that did not load properly in a HologramBuilder.

- Removed the two classes ReferenceSet and ReferenceList.
- HologramPool's #remove method now thread safe.
- Added tests thanks to MockBukkit.
- It is now no longer mandatory to provide placeholders to TextLines or HologramBuilder.
- java 8 -> java 17
