Landos Experimental Additions
by .paret
Landos Experimental Additions is a Forge mod for 1.21 that gathers a varied set of blocks, items and tools meant for trying things out.
What it does
The mod groups experimental content in one place. It adds a range of blocks, items and tools, and its stated purpose is to let players learn how mods are made by testing what each addition does. Among the new material are a wood type and a steel type, along with three variants of a new ore, and the author plans to build an enchanting-like system around them over time.
The mod is client and server: both the server and every player need it installed. It is released under the MIT License, is open source, and publishes its source code. Only Forge builds exist, and the only game version covered is 1.21, with 0.0.1 as the single file released on 2025-08-17 and marked on the beta channel.

Use cases
Learning mod development
Players and new modders can read the open source code and see how blocks, items and tools are registered on Forge.
Testing new content
Anyone can place the added blocks and try the items in a world to see how they behave before using them elsewhere.
Who it’s for: Players who want to try unfinished additions, and developers who want working examples of Forge content to study. Single-player worlds and servers can both use the mod.
