# ❓ What Are Datapacks ❓

Datapacks are ZIP files that can customize your Minecraft experience. They can be used to add/remove/change advancements, loot, structures, recipes, etc without the code modification that mods do.

|| Datapacks have only been implemented in Minecraft recently, so they only work on Minecraft `1.13.x+`. Make sure to check if the datapack you want to use works on the newest Minecraft versions!

# 📜 Find Your Datapack 📜
