Why do I remember minecraft using yggdrasil at some point. Maybe just a name clash of a java library.

  Yggdrasil is from Norse mythology. So I’m not surprised that a bunch of different people name software after it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yggdrasil https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yggdrasil Just like many might pick cool and important names from Greek mythology for example, like Poseidon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poseidon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poseidon

    Indeed; Yggdrasil is also the name of a set of models of the emission from stellar populations: https://www.astro.uu.se/~ez/yggdrasil/ReadMe.txt https://www.astro.uu.se/~ez/yggdrasil/ReadMe.txt https://www.astro.uu.se/~ez/yggdrasil/yggdrasil.html https://www.astro.uu.se/~ez/yggdrasil/yggdrasil.html

      wow thanks for the link, the UFO style ring interface floating over a honeycomb is extremely similar to a GUI I designed once, didn't realize Digimon had prior art on it.

    FYI, the Minecraft Fandom wiki is no longer maintained. The new wiki is https://minecraft.wiki/w/Yggdrasil https://minecraft.wiki/w/Yggdrasil
