Datapacks

Any datapack or mod can add fletching table recipes by placing a JSON file in:

data/<your_namespace>/recipe/<recipe_name>.json

Recipe format:

{
    "type": "the_fletching_table:fletching",
    "first": {
        "item": "minecraft:feather"
    },
    "second": {
        "item": "minecraft:stick"
    },
    "third": {
        "item": "minecraft:flint"
    },
    "result": {
        "id": "minecraft:arrow",
        "count": 6
    }
}

• first, second, third are standard ingredient fields - use "item" for a specific item or "tag" for a tag
• first is optional - omit it for a two-ingredient recipe (the first slot must be empty to match)
• Each ingredient supports an optional *_count field (e.g. "second_count": 6) - defaults to 1
• result uses the standard item format with id and count

Tags

The built-in arrow recipe uses common tags for broader mod compatibility:

"first": { "tag": "c:feathers" },
"second": { "tag": "c:rods/wooden" }

Any mod that adds items to these tags will automatically work as arrow ingredients.
