EvenBetterGUI Vanilla
For Minecraft 1.20.3 - 1.21.5 [click the arrow on the right to learn more]
When I was creating this pack I had the goal of making Minecraft's GUI even better, so when tackling vanilla I make the gui slightly darker, the edges rounder and added clearer lines between the rows. As well as this I also extended the 1.20.3+ button outline to all buttons in the game, including selecting enchantments and banner patterns.

(Achieved via Respackopts)
[click the arrow on the right to learn more WARNING VERY LONG]
When I was browsing for how to do options / addons for resource packs I came across respackopts and it was the dream, it has all the positives of a system like Vanilla Tweaks without most of the drawbacks, so I ran with it. The options avaliable give you over 3 million combination possibilities! Check out all the options below (Press the dropdown button)
