Description from the author on Modrinth

This resource pack customizes Xaero's Minimap to seamlessly blend with Minecraft’s vanilla aesthetic. Enjoy a minimalistic design with colors and icons that match the base game, bringing a consistent and immersive feel to your adventures. Ideal for players who want the functionality of Xaero's Minimap without straying from the classic Minecraft look.

USE XAEROPLUS TO FIX THE CURSOR PLACEMENT!

Further more with this resourcepack, I suggest Xaero's Map Frame highly to go along with the aesthetic!
