AdiCrafter
by adirelle
AdiCrafter is a Fabric utility that turns a single block into an automated crafting table, with its own recipe grid and internal storage.
What it does
Right-clicking the block opens a configuration screen where a recipe is chosen and its grid is edited. A valid recipe shows its result in the middle slot, and the right slot notes when there are not enough ingredients. Gaps in the grid are marked before any item is spent, so the shortfall is visible at a glance.
The crafter pulls ingredients from neighboring containers, including chests, hoppers and other automated blocks that implement the Fabric transfer API. By default it looks for the exact items used in the grid, while a fuzzy option lets it use compatible items, for example any plank to craft a chest. An option also lets it pull fluids from neighboring tanks, such as cauldrons, and fill buckets and bottles, which becomes more useful alongside mods that add new fluid recipes.
The block stores its own internal storage and refills its energy steadily over time, and crafting draws some of that energy away. The default settings let a fully loaded crafter make 10 items in a row, and the configuration file can tweak or disable that behavior. The mod is published for Fabric only, with files for 1.18.1, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is open source under the MIT License.
