Functional Interface:
This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.

@FunctionalInterface public interface ScreenHandlerFactory
A functional interface to create a new screen handler (menu) on the server.

This interface itself is not used directly. Instead, the subinterface NamedScreenHandlerFactory is passed to PlayerEntity.openHandledScreen(net.minecraft.screen.NamedScreenHandlerFactory). In vanilla, block entity instances implement that interface, allowing them to be passed. SimpleNamedScreenHandlerFactory is a screen handler factory implementation for use cases that do not involve a block entity.

The factory should create a new instance of a screen handler with the server-side constructor (one that takes inventories, etc). If the screen handler requires a property delegate or a context, create an instance and pass it here.
