Luna's Mod
by LunaWurx
Luna's Mod, a Fabric mod for 1.18.2 by LunaWurx, adds new tools, armor, blocks and foods, plus a few new recipes, to vanilla play.
What it does
The mod is a Vanilla+ addition: it adds new mechanics and content meant to extend vanilla survival without feeling unbalanced. Its additions cover tool sets with unique properties and textures, a set of five new armor pieces, five new foods and several blocks that serve both decorative and functional roles. New recipes also cover smelting rotten flesh into leather and crafting budding amethyst.
The author describes the project as unfinished, with roughly 5% of the planned work done, and the source code is public on GitHub for anyone following its development. Luna's Mod runs on Fabric for Minecraft 1.18.2 only, so it cannot be used on other game versions. The environment is client and server, meaning both the server and every player need the mod installed, and it is released under the MIT License as open source.
Two utility features are part of the mod: a recipe search that lets players look up crafting recipes for items, which helps with modded recipes that are not available the way vanilla ones are, and a block readout that names the block under the crosshair.

How it compares
Lunali is a Fabric mod for 1.20.1 under a custom license, not open source, and it runs client and server. Blocky Enjoyment is also Fabric for 1.20.1, under the Apache License 2.0, not open source, and needs both client and server. World of Food is Fabric for 1.16 – 1.18.2 under the MIT License, open source, and is also client and server, so it covers the same version as Luna's Mod while the others target 1.20.1.
