Aelven Expansion
Aelven Expansion adds a dimension called Aelfheim, reached in survival through a command, along with new biomes, blocks and structures for Forge on 1.19.2.
What it does
Most of the content is focused on Aelfheim, a new dimension that players reach through a command in survival mode. The mod also places magical creatures and resources across it. A large share of its blocks are decorative, since the author describes the project as still in early development, and a single unfinished mob is included.
The dimension's biomes are Chalk Peaks, whose surface is coated in a deep bed of chalk dust over chitta; Silverblood Rise, a woodland of tilted trees and flowers that echo the trees; Moon Fir Wilds, a murkier version of Silverblood Rise; and Peachgrove Swamp, where broad-trunked swamp trees and blossoms take on the colour of the soil, which is blanketed with mud, mulch and mudstone. Some features are described by the author as half-baked and still being worked on.
Aelven Expansion is published for Forge 1.19.2 only. It runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and Just Enough Items (JEI) is an optional companion for compatibility. The mod is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

How it compares
The magical dimension is a Forge mod for 1.19.4 – 1.20.1, so it does not cover the 1.19.2 release that Aelven Expansion targets. Spilter's Magical Expansion is a Forge mod for 1.19.2 – 1.20.1 with the same client and server environment, and it is also not open source and released under All rights reserved. Swamp Expansion is a Forge option for 1.14.4 – 1.15.2 with a custom license, so it is an older release line.

Currently, there is no way to get into Aelfheim in survival mode, you have to use a command /execute in aelven_expansion:aelfheim run tp ~ ~ ~. At the moment…
