FAQ

What Java version does Fabric Snapshot 22w13a need?

Fabric Snapshot 22w13a needs Java 17 or newer. Running it on an older Java fails with an UnsupportedClassVersionError mentioning class file version 61.0.

Is Fabric Snapshot 22w13a safe for my survival world?

Only on a copy. Preview versions are experimental and upgrade worlds irreversibly; keep a backup and don't switch a live world to a snapshot, pre-release or release candidate.
