I finally figured out how to get HWYLA into my work environment using
[sorry this breaks the code insert wrapper]....

repositories {
maven { url "https://maven.tehnut.info" }
}

dependencies {
minecraft "net.minecraftforge:forge:1.14.4-28.2.23"

// Compile against the Hwyla API, but do not include it at runtime
compileOnly fg.deobf("mcp.mobius.waila:Hwyla:1.10.6-B67_1.14.4:api")
// At runtime, use the full Hwyla jar
runtimeOnly fg.deobf("mcp.mobius.waila:Hwyla:1.10.6-B67_1.14.4")

}

Now if I can find some simple straight forward examples of adding information for a block I'm looking at.

You would think searching for IWailaPlugin on github would help or in a search engine, everything is old and out dated and the results returned are just a few pages worth at best.
I need to figure out searching github since IWailaPlugin should return so much more, I found one mod to look at due to a person posting in here [way more complicated than I could use just learning how the hwyla works], that never was in the search results.
[EDIT:] Who knew I took the I off of IWailaPlugin and searched WailaPlugin and I'm getting better search results on github.

Anyway any help would be appreciated. A pointer in the right direction?

OK figured it out had not added the BlockItem for the block.
So did that and without any other code it showed the basic information [the name] in Hwyla. Though I had to make a plugin.
So unless I want to customize something it works out of the box, should probably stamp that on the front page in BIG RED LETTERS.
Maybe this will help someone else.
