Pineapple Tags
by AmarokIce
Pineapple Tags is a Forge library for 1.7.10 that declares tags for items and blocks so that mods can share one standardized set of names.
What it does
Modpack and mod developers use the library to declare tags on any target type, such as blocks or items, and to assign them through a central TagsManager. Tags declared this way replace the older OreDictionary that was used by the Workbench, and they also cover non-item targets where the Mineral Dictionary offered nothing.
Several modules are built to work with Pineapple Tags, so one tag set can be read across them. Ingredient gets a unified holding class when a crafting recipe joins a Pineapple tag. Because two sides cannot synchronize tags directly, either side must re-declare them before use. The library works on either side, and neither needs it. ManaMetalMod Tweaks requires it, and the license is a custom one that does not make the project open source.
Key features
Central tag declaration
Tags are declared once for a target type and then assigned through the TagsManager, which keeps naming consistent.
Replacement for OreDictionary
Later tags take over the role that the OreDictionary played for recipes and the Workbench.
Unified ingredient holder
A recipe that joins a Pineapple tag gets a single holding class for its Ingredient, so tag matches are handled in one place.
Module compatibility
Modules written for Pineapple Tags read the same tag declarations, which lets their content stay aligned.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Mod developers and modpack authors working on Minecraft 1.7.10 who need standardized tags shared across several mods. Players who only install finished content have no direct use for it.
How it compares
System Storage Lib is released under the MIT License and covers Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.19 – 26.2, so it targets a different range of versions entirely. Stonecutter Recipe Tags is released under the MIT License, is a client and server mod for Fabric, Forge and Quilt across 1.16.3 – 1.19.3, and also works with recipes.

What the author says
The Pineapple Tag is a simple library created to provide standardized taxonomy in modpacks and modding, and its functionality is similar to that of later tags, but it does not replace the OreDictionary used in the Workbench. Pineapple tags can declare tags for anything we like, and if the target tag type is a block…
