Offhand on Top
by PreciousFood
Offhand on Top changes where a block lands when a player places one from the off hand, so the block sits on top of the held block.
What it does
Offhand on Top is a Fabric mod that changes block placement. A block held in the off hand is placed on top of the block held in the main hand, and holding Shift reverses the behavior. Players who lay out redstone lines side by side no longer have to place each block separately. Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing it. Builds exist for 1.21 and 1.21.1 and are released under the MIT License, with the source code and issue tracker public.
Key features
Off hand placement
A block held in the off hand is placed on top of the block in the main hand.
Shift override
Holding Shift keeps the normal placement, so both behaviors remain available.
Faster redstone layouts
Parallel redstone lines can be laid down without placing each block individually.

What the author says
If there you place a block from your main hand and there is a block that can be placed ontop of it from your offhand, it will be placed (Unless you press shift) I made this cause I was tired of placing the blocks and the redstone for redstone lines seperatly 😆
