RedBits adds new redstone components and improves some already existing vanilla mechanics. Primary goal of the mod is to allow for further miniaturization of redstone contraptions, and in turn making them faster.
This is a Fabric only mod, I have no plans to port it to Forge. Fabric API is required.
