Chuck
Chuck lets players throw blocks, which then land and place themselves where they come to rest, and it is built as a minigame with data pack logic behind it.
What it does
Thrown blocks land and place themselves at the spot they stop, so a throw works as a way of setting blocks down. Blocks crafted or looted stack with other identical blocks until they enter a player's inventory, which keeps throwing practical for bulk building. Chuck also covers items that players cannot throw in vanilla, such as carrots and potatoes, and shulker boxes do not keep the order of their stored items when thrown.
Certain blocks need supports, so a throw can fail when the landing position is illegal. Blocks also share one generic placing sound, and modded blocks must be added by editing the data pack files. The mod works through a data pack that runs under the hood and stays compatible with vanilla clients, so the server needs it while players may leave it out. Chuck is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 26.1 – 26.1.2, and it is released under the MIT License, though it is not open source.
Key features

Stacking loot

Support rules
Blocks that need supports stay in place only on valid positions, so a throw may not place them.

How it compares
Dyed Eggs is a server-side mod for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, covering 26.1 – 26.3 under the MIT License and not open source. Throwable Items is also server-side and covers 1.21 – 26.3 under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, not open source. Thrown is client-side only, built for Forge at 1.20.1 under All rights reserved, and not open source, so it differs in environment and version range.
