Kaleidoscope Deco
by YSBB
Kaleidoscope Deco is a decoration pack released as datapacks and resource packs, with core packs that add themed building pieces for Minecraft 1.21.2 and later.
What it does
The content is split into modules grouped by model theme. Core packs hold the ornamental pieces, and extension packs layer functional options over the matching core pack. Players choose modules according to their needs and assemble a data pack with the Minecraft Data Pack Resource Pack Builder, or take a finished data pack containing the modules from the Releases page.
The mod needs the server to run the data pack, while players may add the resource pack for the textures. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, across 14 release versions 1.21.2 – 26.2, with snapshot builds published as well. The project is not open source; it is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0, and public links exist for the source code and the issue tracker.
