What is modding in Minecraft?

Modding in Minecraft allows users to customize many features of the game through:

  • Data Manipulation
  • Code Manipulation
  • Scripting

Java is the most common programming language used in Minecraft mods, but you can also expect to see JavaScript within add-ons for Bedrock edition. The tag should be used when you have a question or problem related to creating and programming a Minecraft mod.

Note: Mods are NOT the same as plugins. See this post to learn more about the difference.
