when did this come out?

[torralbaa]

I don't know, it's a Beta feature, but it is awesome!

[MMK21Hub]

It launched to all repositories yesterday (along with Dark Theme). I know that https://github.com/eslint/eslint had it for a while before that. You'll probably be able to find some blog post on it.

This is looking really cool!

Hello,
I wanted to know how do you modify Minecraft pi edition with mods in .mcpi extension? Because, for now, all I've seen for modifying Minecraft pi editon are .bsdiff's designed to modify the original file.

Hello @AprentiUnity!

.mcpi mods are just Python mods compressed with a common algorithm (GZip, DEFLATE). So you could write any Python mod using the API, ModPi, and the standard library, and then "compile" (compress) it to make it load-able by MCPIL.

⚠️ However, be warned: MCPIL is currently dead, please use MCPIL-R, it does not support Python mod loading yet, but has some cool MCPI-Docker mods.

There's more info in the README, but feel free to ask any questions!
