Introduction

Minecraft resource packs and data packs work well as distribution formats but can be pretty limiting as authoring formats. You can quickly end up having to manage hundreds of files, some of which might be buried within the bundled output of various generators.

The Beet project is a development kit that tries to unify data pack and resource pack tooling into a single pipeline. The community is always coming up with pre-processors, frameworks, and generators of all kinds to make the developer experience more ergonomic. With Beet you can seamlessly integrate all these tools in your project.
