I created Wabi-Sabi Structures, Unwrecked Ships, Revamped Shipwrecks, and Pale Formations. I’ve been developing mods as a hobby since July 2022, and playing Minecraft consistently since 2012. Ask me anything!

So i am a dev myself, csharp. My son loves minecraft and we play it almost daily together.
He often has some wishes for mods.
How hard is it to make an “hello world” easy mod? Maybe link to a tutorial which you find useful, for java edition under linux :)
Is it possible to modify mods that you download?
You write a mod in java, run a gradle build and paste it into minecraft/mods.
Depending on your experience with java, with gamedev and the type of mod you want, it might be incredibly simple or completely impossible. Would benefit from an example of an ask if you have some.
Also remember that more than likely, there is already a mod for whatever he wants.
Edit: on “modifying”, if you have source code, not hard at all. If you don’t, you need to decompile and swap stuff around, so you are working with gibberish, messing around in code that is most likely incredibly complex. But swap a texture? That should be possible (though I haven’t done it myself).
