Smart Crafting Table
by benbenlaw
Smart Crafting Table is a NeoForge block that scans the whole inventory and lists only the recipes the player can currently craft.
What it does
When a player opens the block, it reads every item stored in the inventory and shows the recipes that can be made from those items. Recipes that lack an ingredient are hidden, which removes the need to scroll through the full recipe book and check each one by hand. A search bar lets the player find a specific item by name among the craftable results.
The block suits players managing large inventories, including modpacks with thousands of items, as well as automation setups and long projects that draw from many storage sources. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for NeoForge across five release versions, 1.21.1 – 26.3, and the code is closed, under All rights reserved.
Key features
Inventory-based recipe list
The table scans the entire inventory and displays only the recipes that can be crafted from what is stored.
Item search bar
A search field filters the results so a specific item can be found without browsing every recipe.
Less memorizing
Players see the available options directly, instead of guessing which patterns will work with their current stock.
Suited to large storage
Results stay usable when the inventory holds many item types, as in large modpacks and automated setups.
