This guide will help you with how you can install Fabric on your Minecraft Server.
What is Fabric?
Fabric is a newer loader that should be more lightweight and faster when it comes to loading mods. It has a smaller library of mods compared to Forge, and not every Forge mod has a Fabric version. It gets updated regularly, which means stability.
Fabric is a lightweight, experimental modding toolchain for Minecraft.
