Red's Tweaks
by RedFox63
Red's Tweaks is a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 – 1.20.5 that adds a set of quality-of-life changes to vanilla food, trading, enchanting and loot.
What it does
Red's Tweaks changes several parts of the survival loop. Rotten flesh gains more uses, including smelting it into leather chunks that convert to leather, and wandering traders receive additional trades for it. The mod also adds smithing templates for the Coast, Sentry and Dune armor trims, a Mending book, and an Ender Pearl and Totem of Undying adjustment to the trade and drop lists.
Loot tables in structures are modified to give better rewards, and the golden carrot becomes an alternative food item to the iron beetroot. The author describes the mod as a collection of quality-of-life additions for Minecraft, so the changes are spread across many small systems rather than one large feature.
Installation covers the server and each player's game. Fabric API is required. Red's Tweaks is released under the MIT License, is not open source, and has files for 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.20.3, 1.20.4 and 1.20.5 on Fabric.

How it compares
Useful Rotten Flesh is a Fabric mod for 1.20.1 that is client and server and not open source, released under All rights reserved. Simple Rotten Flesh to Leather is also a Fabric mod for 1.20.1 with a client and server environment, but it is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Rotten Flesh To Leather covers only 1.16 – 1.18.1 under a custom license, and Zombie Leather is server-side only for 1.21.4 – 1.21.7 under a custom license, so it does not overlap with Red's Tweaks' version range.
