What mDirt is

mDirt is a free Windows application for building custom Minecraft datapacks through a visual interface, without writing code. Its generators cover blocks, items, recipes, paintings, structures, and equipment. Each generator provides guided fields and built-in validation, helping users configure content before exporting it. The application creates a datapack and resource pack in an exports folder for use in Minecraft.

For structures, users can add Minecraft-generated .nbt files and provide details such as spawn rules. Equipment generation includes custom items such as horse armor, with settings for item textures, model textures, and armor points. The README lists full feature support for Minecraft 1.21.4 and 1.21.5, as well as 1.21.6, 1.21.7, and 1.21.8.

A v3.1.0-beta.1 release adds text and potion generators; the potion generator produces a /give command. That beta may have incomplete or unstable features, and text click and hover events are not supported. mDirt requires Windows 10 or later, with at least 130 MB of free disk space and 4 GB of memory recommended. It is distributed as an installer or portable ZIP, and the repository identifies its license as GPL-3.0.
