Dawn is built on top of dozens of open-source projects. The list below merges the new Dawn Launcher inventory (Kotlin / Compose, fonts, Bedrock tools, content services) with the in-game Dawn Client — which is the same codebase that shipped as Feather Client before the rebrand — and the legacy Feather mod catalog. Every entry stays under its original license; the “source” link goes to the upstream project and the license name links to the license text where one is available.
Dawn Launcher
The libraries that power the native Kotlin Compose launcher you boot before Minecraft.
Dawn Client (formerly Feather Client)
The in-game client mods and code that carried over from Feather Client when it became Dawn.
