Bitwise
by Eucloid
Bitwise, a NeoForge mod for Minecraft 1.21.4, adds logical redstone components that compute boolean results from their inputs.
What it does
The Redstone Operator takes a left and a right input and combines them with AND, OR or XOR. Its back input acts as a gate that inverts the output, and it has three modes. The block itself adds a one-tick delay before the output changes. Players can see the behavior in the examples the author shows on the mod page.
The Redstone Diode works as a delayless repeater: it boosts the signal and passes it on without adding an output tick. Its side inputs cycle between the left and back and right sides. Together the two blocks let casual redstone builders and advanced computational players build logic circuits, and the author notes that more blocks are planned for future updates. A player with little redstone experience can build a half-adder from these parts.
Bitwise runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.4, with 1.0.0 as the latest file. It is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source.
Key features
Boolean redstone operator
The Redstone Operator combines its left and right inputs with AND, OR or XOR and outputs the result.
Inverting back input
A back input turns the Operator into a gate that inverts its output, with three modes selected by the player.
Delayless diode
The Redstone Diode repeats and boosts a signal without adding an output tick, unlike the one-tick Operator.
Side input cycling
Right-clicking cycles each block between its input sides, so one block can switch between several logic setups.

What the author says
Together, these two blocks (not to mention the ones I have planned for future updates (stay tuned!) allow for a multitude of possibilities both for casual redstoners and more advanced or computational players. Below, you can see even I, a total noob with logical redstone, was able to make a half-adder fairly…
