Minecraft Compiler Collection vs Minecraft Datapack Language

Minecraft Compiler Collection has no write-up on Specifiction yet; its figures are above.

Minecraft Datapack Language (MDL) compiles a JavaScript-style language into Minecraft datapacks. It supports if/else statements, while loops, number variables, arithmetic expressions and variable scopes. Projects can span multiple files, with variables from all files merged automatically, and can reference external JSON for registry types such as recipes, loot tables and advancements. Its command-line tool can create projects, check code and build datapacks or directories containing multiple files. A VS Code extension adds syntax highlighting, real-time error checking, build commands, workspace validation and raw text blocks. Python bindings support programmatic datapack creation with variables, control flow, nested functions and MDL scopes. Documentation includes Makefile, npm scripts and GitHub Actions build and checking examples. MDL is open source under the MIT License and costs nothing. Listed platforms include API, extension, Linux, macOS and Windows; system requirements include Python 3.8 or higher and Minecraft 1.20+ or 1.19+. Support pointers include documentation, examples, GitHub Issues and GitHub Discussions.
