PackLab
by Azlonn
PackLab lets players combine textures from several resource packs into one custom pack through an in-game interface, with no external tools needed.
What it does
When several packs change the same asset, Minecraft's priority order lets only one of them supply the texture, so taking weapons from one pack, ores from another and blocks from a third usually means unpacking ZIP archives and copying files manually. PackLab replaces that process: a player browses the textures in the installed packs, picks the exact version of each texture, and exports a brand-new resource pack holding that selection.
Each texture is chosen on its own rather than taking a whole resource pack, which gives the player full control over the result. The work stays inside the game, so there is no manual file editing and no extracting of archives. PackLab is a Fabric mod for 1.21.11, released under the MIT License, and it is not open source. Only the player's game needs it, and servers run without it.
Key features
Combine packs into one
Textures from several installed resource packs can be merged into a single custom pack.
Browse textures in game
An in-game screen lists the textures of every installed pack so each one can be previewed before it is chosen.
Select single textures
Individual textures are picked one by one, instead of adopting an entire resource pack at once.
Export a new pack
The chosen textures are written out as a brand-new resource pack, ready to be loaded like any other.

Use cases
Mixing pack styles
A player who likes the weapons of one pack, the ores of another and the blocks of a third can assemble them into one pack.
Who it’s for: Players who use several resource packs and want to keep only some of their textures. Creators who build packs from textures taken from others may also find the selection screen useful for collecting them in one place.
How it compares
Pack Sync is a Fabric mod for 1.21.4 that runs client-side only, and its license is All rights reserved, so its code is not open source. Load My Overlay is a Fabric mod for 1.21 – 1.21.10 that runs client-side only, released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and open source. PackLab targets 1.21.11 only, so a player on an older version will need one of those mods instead.

Normally, that means digging through ZIP files, manually copying textures, and hoping nothing breaks.
