In their own words
bridge.
bridge. is an IDE for creating Minecraft Bedrock behavior packs, resource packs, skin packs, and world templates. It sets up projects with their required files and configuration, and supports every file type Minecraft accepts for Add-Ons. Users can work in text or tree editors; dynamic completions and schema validation help with file editing, while the tree editor is recommended for people with little JSON knowledge. Previews cover models, textures, animations, collision boxes, entity seats, and particle effects without opening Minecraft. The built-in Dash compiler supports plugins, and the extension API and store allow community tools, editors, viewers, presets, themes, and compiler plugins. Packs and worlds can sync to Minecraft’s com.mojang folder, while projects are stored elsewhere by default. The installed web app works offline. It is free and open source under GPL-3.0, with web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android versions. On mobile, projects must be downloaded to fully save progress because mobile browsers lack a required API.
Visual Studio Code
Visual Studio Code is an open-source code editor with AI-assisted development features for macOS, Linux, Windows, and the web. It offers inline AI suggestions and intelligent completions, and its agent workflows can plan tasks, change code, run commands, and iterate. Users can switch between agent work and direct coding in the same editor. Agent workflows work with Copilot and third-party providers, and users can supply their own model key. The editor includes JavaScript, TypeScript, CSS, and HTML support; extensions add support for other languages. Its Marketplace lists more than 80,000 extensions. Built-in tools include Git source control, an integrated terminal, code running and debugging, build tasks, and local history. It connects to GitHub Codespaces and remote development environments, while Settings Sync and profiles help carry and organize customizations. The browser version has a limited execution environment. VS Code is free for private or commercial use at free. A GitHub account is required to start building with AI agents.
