Epitheca
Epitheca, a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21.1, adds craftable variants of existing blocks and items, and a Recrafter block that converts blocks into those variants.
What it does
The mod adds craftable variants of several vanilla blocks and items, including shroomlight, glowstone, magma, doors, bars, pumpkins and bookshelves. Each variant is a separate block or item with its own crafting recipe, so a build can use the new forms alongside the originals.
A Recrafter block with a graphical interface handles recipes, letting a player convert existing blocks into their Epitheca counterparts. The author describes the project as heavily work in progress, with many planned features not yet implemented.
Epitheca is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and it is published for Fabric alone, with a single game version, 1.21.1. Both client and server need it, so the mod has to be installed on each side of a multiplayer server.
