+ * A utility class for registering custom {@link ParticleProvider}s for particle types.
+ * <p>
+ * This class's methods should be invoked <b>before</b> {@link ClientLifecycleEvent#CLIENT_SETUP},
+ * as doing so afterwards will result in the providers not being registered properly on Forge, causing crashes on startup.
+ * <p>
+ * Generally speaking, you should either listen to the registration of your particle type yourself and use either
+ * {@link #register(ParticleType, ParticleProvider)} or {@link #register(ParticleType, DeferredParticleProvider)} to register the provider,
+ * or use the helper methods {@link #register(RegistrySupplier, ParticleProvider)} and {@link #register(RegistrySupplier, DeferredParticleProvider)},
+ * which will automatically handle the listening for you.
