In their own words
MCPEDL
MCPEDL is a website for finding downloadable content for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, including add-ons, maps, mods, seeds and texture packs. The site says the content is free to download and describes itself as a place where Bedrock creators can share projects. It began on April 1, 2014, and says it is not affiliated with Mojang Studios. MCPEDL is available on Android, iOS, macOS, web and Windows. Its mobile installation guides cover Android and iOS and recommend the MCPEDL app; a Windows guide covers importing add-ons, resource packs, worlds and skin packs in.mcaddon,.mcpack and.mcworld formats. Project pages say downloads are securely hosted by CurseForge. The site says moderation combines automated checks and manual review, and submissions must follow Minecraft's EULA and Terms of Service and cannot collect personal information through a mod. Optional VIP membership removes banner and text ads and adds download and profile features. VIP costs $3.99 a month for one month, $9.99, paid once for three months, or $29.99 a year for one year.
NetherChest
NetherChest is a free web directory and guide for Minecraft Java mods and modpacks. Its mod directory states that it contains 600 mods and lets visitors filter by Minecraft version, loader and what a mod adds. A separate directory lists 112 modpacks, organized for browsing by game version, loader and category. Mod information identifies the game version, required loader and official download location; downloads open on the official mod page. Guides explain installing loaders and mods, using popular mods and resolving common problems. Loader instructions cover Forge, Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt, and describe a six-step setup from choosing a Minecraft version through placing matching files in the profile’s mods folder. The site says the Minecraft version, loader and mod file must match, warns against mixing loader files and notes that some mods need a library file. Beginner guidance addresses safe downloads and finding the mods folder, while crash guidance covers wrong versions, mixed loaders, missing libraries, Java and broken configuration files.
