Not on modrinth

The fabric api does exist on modrinth, but not fabric-language-kotlin

Yes. we need this on modrinth.

Not to mention it's currently impossible (AFAIK) to download on a headless server because builds aren't available for direct download (e.g. via GitHub Releases or Modrinth)

It's also on the fabric maven for developers so you can download it headlessly from there.

A real reason why the mod should be on Modrinth is that you probably want to declare a dependency on fabric-language-kotlin, currently this is only possible on Curseforge, but I do want to do this with the releases of my mods on Modrinth as well.

Of course for humans you can write "this mod depends on fabric-language-kotlin" into the description and link it, but package managers, launchers and other programs resolve the dependencies automatically - and they can't interpret the description - they need a declared dependency.

Due to fabric-language-kotlin being such a core mod that many other mods (which often have Modrinth versions) depend on, it should really be released on Modrinth as well.

I have created a project here: https://modrinth.com/mod/fabric-language-kotlin (pending approval). I decided against uploading all the old releases partly due to the latest version working on the oldest mc version we support, and partly becuase I broke modrith last time I did that.
