Can someone help me know why i get this error building my mod?

It says the error is here when importing from fabric api

import net.fabricmc.api.ModInitializer;
import net.fabricmc.loader.api.FabricLoader; ```
>>
> error: package net.fabricmc.api does not exist
> import net.fabricmc.api.ModInitializer;
>                        ^
even though it should be loaded in my dependency?

dependencies {
// Fabric Loom and Minecraft
minecraft "com.mojang:minecraft:1.21.8"
mappings "net.fabricmc:yarn:1.21.8-rc1+build.2:v2"

// Fabric API
modImplementation "net.fabricmc.fabric-api:fabric-api:0.130.0+1.21.8"

// Mixin library
modImplementation "org.spongepowered:mixin:0.8.5"

}```

It should be obvious i am extremely new to modding fabric and i may just be stupid :D

Oh, huh

#

That package is from the fabric loader

#

But you have mixin instead

#

Do modImplementation "net.fabricmc:fabric-loader:0.16.14" instead of modImplementation "org.spongepowered:mixin:0.8.5"

#

You won't need to depend on mixin explicity if you have the loader

#

You also need the loader to access the loader itself

#

To get the runtime/config directories and see what mods are loaded or not

native onyx
#

do i use loader too for the mixins then or how would that work?

native onyx
cold jewel
#

The loader has that already, yeah

#

And mixin extras too

#

Which, you'd be missing without explicitly depending on it as well afaik

cold jewel

#

in discord?

cold jewel
#

Yeah

native onyx
#

wtf lol ty i never knew that

cold jewel
#

Just saying in case you want further help and want to spare others the effort of mentally parsing what they're reading

#

Tho, idk how good the groovy syntax highlighting would be even if you did that

#

Even the intellij plugin for groovy is just trash
