Cubatar - an open-source API for rendering 3D Minecraft avatars

Resource

Hello.
If you make websites or Discord bots for your Minecraft servers, you often need to show player avatars. I built Cubatar, a fast service in Java to generate 3D avatars. It correctly shows the second skin layer like hats./

It uses caching so it does not spam the Mojang API. You can use usernames, UUIDs, or skin URLs. You can easily host it yourself using Docker.

Source code, docs, and a live demo are on my GitHub: https://github.com/Tok1shu/Cubatar
