Luck Potion Recipe
by WLeonard
Luck Potion Recipe adds a shapeless crafting recipe for the Luck potion, which vanilla survival cannot brew.
What it does
Vanilla survival has no way to obtain the Luck potion, so this mod fills that gap with a crafting recipe added through a data pack. The recipe is shapeless, meaning the ingredients can be placed in any arrangement on the crafting grid. The author could not write a brewing recipe because the mod works through data-driven content instead of the brewing stand.
Only the server needs the mod for the recipe to exist, while players may leave it out. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with the latest files for 1.21.11, and snapshot builds are also published. The code is open source under the MIT License.

Fills a vanilla gap
The Luck potion cannot be obtained in vanilla survival, and the recipe makes it available through crafting.
Data-driven design
The recipe is delivered as data, so the mod adds no new items or blocks to the game.

What the author says
Currently the potion of luck isn't obtainable in vanilla survival, so this datapack was made to fix that. It adds a shapeless crafting recipe shown in the gallery.
