 If you don't want mixins (which allow for modifying vanilla code), then you can remove the references to mixins from
 the `build.gradle.kts` at the lines specified with comments and the `com.example.mixin` package.

 This project uses [DevAuth](https://github.com/DJtheRedstoner/DevAuth) per default, so you can log in using your real
