Jar It!
by Kneelawk
Jar It! lets players seal a block inside a glass jar, then pick the jar up and carry it anywhere.
What it does
Players surround the block they want to store with Jar Glass and cap the top with a Jar Cork, so the block must sit at an edge or corner of the jar cube.
A Jar Opener expands a placed jar back into its cube of Jar Glass, restoring the original contents. The contents are preserved through the whole round trip, so nothing is lost by packing a build away and unpacking it later.
The mod runs on Quilt only, with files for 1.19.2. It needs Quilt Kotlin Libraries (QKL) and either Quilted Fabric API (QFAPI) or Quilt Standard Libraries (QSL). Servers and players both load it, since it is client and server. It is released under the MIT License and is open source; its source code and issue tracker are public. It was first published on 2022-08-21 and last updated on 2022-09-09, when 0.1.11+1.19.2 appeared on the alpha channel. It was submitted to the 2022 ModFest.

Storing blocks compactly
