Devin's Recipes
by devin
Devin's Recipes adds crafting recipes for items and blocks that vanilla leaves uncraftable, such as saddles and chainmail armor.
What it does
The mod is built around a datapack that adds recipes for items and blocks the base game does not craft, including saddles, chainmail armor pieces, a dead bush and an extra leather recipe. Horse armor is covered too. Totems and spawners stay without crafting recipes, since the author kept them out to preserve balance.
Installation needs the mod on Fabric, Forge or Quilt, and the server must run it while players may leave it out. The code is licensed under the MIT License and is open source, and the source code and issue tracker are public. Files cover 1.20 and 1.20.1, with 1.0.1+pf15+mod for 1.20.1 as the latest file on each loader, released 2023-07-08 after a first publication on 2023-07-07. A data pack version is also offered for servers.
Key features
Chainmail armor recipes
Helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots in chainmail can be crafted, filling a gap in the base game.
Saddle and horse armor
Saddles and horse armor gain crafting recipes, so players can make them without finding them in the world.
Extra leather and dead bush
An additional leather recipe and a crafting recipe for the dead bush are included in the recipe set.
Balanced selection
Items such as totems and spawners are left without recipes so that the set does not give overpowered crafted items.

How it compares
Chainmail Armor Craftings is server-side with a license of All rights reserved, and its listed versions start at 1.21 rather than 1.20.1. Lightweight is also server-side, covers only 1.20.5 – 1.20.6 and is not open source. Additional recipe is a Forge-only, server-side mod released under the MIT License for 1.20.1, which makes it the closest match on loader and version.

What the author says
This is a datapack that adds various recipes to items and blocks that don't have one. I tried to keep it as balanced as I could. Some items, such as totems and spawners, don't have crafting recipes as they are too overpowered to be crafted. Recipes can also be found in the gallery.
