Hey,
I’m working on a utility mod for my modpack (which is MIT-licensed) and I noticed that the Collective mod has some really great utility and QoL features. Since Collective is under "All Rights Reserved," I know I can't copy its code, but I’m wondering how it works if I were to use Collective as a dependency for my mod, similar to how your mods rely on it.

I understand if it’s not possible, I just wanted to check before I start building my own implementations.
(if you do/don't allow this usage, you may want to mention it in the collective mod page so you don't get more questions like this)

Thanks for the interest! It is allowed to use Collective as a dependency for your mods, as long as you don't rehost the download, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea.

There isn't really any documentation available, and I can add breaking changes without notice. You can look at the code though, see how I do things, and base your own implementation on that.

If you plan on using a specific version for your modpack, it should be ok I think
