bridge.
What it is
bridge. is a free, open-source IDE for making Minecraft Bedrock add-ons, including behavior packs, resource packs, skin packs, and world templates. It prepares project files and configuration, and supports every file type Minecraft supports for add-ons. Text and tree editors offer dynamic completions and schema validation; the tree editor is designed to help people with little JSON experience avoid syntax errors. Previews display models, textures, animations, collision boxes, entity seats, and particle effects without opening Minecraft. The built-in Dash compiler supports plugins, while the extension API and store accommodate community tools, editors, viewers, presets, themes, and compiler plugins. Projects can sync to Minecraft's com.mojang folder, but are stored outside it by default. The installed web app works offline, and project structure can be used with GitHub for collaboration and version control. It runs on Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, and Windows. Mobile users need to download projects to fully save progress because mobile browsers lack a required API.
