Little Things
Little Things fills small gaps the base game leaves, with stone variations, shingles, iron mesh, pebbles, copper tools and spike traps for Forge on 1.20.1.
What it does
Most additions are building blocks and natural details, such as stone variations, shingles and iron mesh, along with some trims that make terrain and structures look more lived in. The mod adds no new dimensions or complex mechanics; its goal is to close inconsistencies found across vanilla.
Gameplay additions cover several roles. Flax works as a crop and an alternative string source, pebbles allow crafting that skips wooden tools, copper armor and tools are added, and spike traps activate when stepped on. Crystallized snowballs load a blowgun, and storage items include a backpack and a medallion. Geckolib is required, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge, for 1.20.1 only, with 1.0.4 as the latest file, under AFL-3.0 and not open source.

Use cases
Building and decorating

Early-game progression
Players can use the pebble recipes to reach stone tools without making wooden tools first.
Farming
Flax gives farmers a crop that also serves as a string source.
Who it’s for: Players who want small additions that fill gaps in vanilla rather than new dimensions, and server owners who want a more complete base game with a Geckolib dependency installed.
How it compares
The Pebble Age is client or server optional under the MIT License, with files for 1.20.1, so it can run on one side alone. MySpawn is client and server under All rights reserved and not open source, a spawn-focused mod that changes little else. Blowguns is published for both Fabric and Forge under CC0 1.0 Universal, which covers the blowgun on its own; Little Things adds a blowgun as one part of a wider set.
