Let It Burn
by Nord_Act
Let It Burn is a Fabric server mod that controls which blocks can catch fire, edited through a config file.
What it does
Server owners can add or remove blocks from the list of blocks that catch fire. A generated config file, created with the default setup, holds that list, and it starts empty in the default setup until the owner fills it in. Because it runs on the server alone, players join without installing anything. The mod is published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21 and 1.21.1, and requires Cloth Config API and Fabric API. The code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features

Blocks are added to or removed from the list of blocks that can catch fire.

Cloth Config screen
Cloth Config API provides a settings screen for editing the block list in game.

How it compares
Cobblemon Catch Ball Rules is also server-side only and released under the MIT License, but it is published for 1.21.1 only and targets catch mechanics rather than fire. Reload Key is client-side only, uses the All rights reserved license, and its code is not public, with files for 1.21 – 1.21.7.
