Bundle (Vanilla Experiment)
by Mojang
The official vanilla experiment that enables bundles for inventory management. Bundles can store multiple item types in a single slot.
Overview
Bundle (Vanilla Experiment) is Mojang's official experimental toggle that switches on bundles, the inventory item that lets you tuck several different item types into a single slot. Each bundle shows a visual indicator of what is inside so you can track its contents at a glance, and it is crafted using rabbit hide. Because it is an experiment rather than a community pack, you enable it from the Experiments screen when creating a world. It cannot be safely bolted onto an existing world, which will instead show an experimental-features warning.
It suits players who want official Mojang inventory management and are starting a fresh world to try bundles early. It comes from Mojang, sits in the Gameplay category, and is rated a simple, drop-in pack to run. Everything happens through the world's own data, so no mod loader such as Fabric or Forge is required to use it on Minecraft 1.20 through 1.20.4.

How It Works
Under the hood, Bundle (Vanilla Experiment) relies on plain data pack mechanics rather than any client mod. Here is what happens in-game once it is loaded:
- 1Enabling the experiment at world creation turns on the bundle item.
- 2A bundle stores multiple different item types together in one inventory slot.
- 3Its visual indicator reflects how full the bundle currently is.
- 4The bundle is crafted using rabbit hide as the key ingredient.
Supported Versions
Compatibility
Official vanilla experiment. Compatible with all data packs.
- As an official Mojang experiment it is compatible with all data packs.
- Only available through the experiment toggle, not by dropping it into an existing world.
- Existing worlds opened with it active display an experimental-features warning.
Bundle (Vanilla Experiment) is a pure data pack and does not ship a resource pack, so it changes server-side behaviour without altering textures, models or sounds on the client.

How to Install
Bundle (Vanilla Experiment) installs as a standard Java Edition data pack and runs on singleplayer worlds. The 1.20 family shares a stable data pack format, so a single download covers every point release listed.
- 1.Download the Bundle (Vanilla Experiment) pack as a .zip and keep it zipped.
- 2.Open your singleplayer save folder (Saves menu → Open World Folder, or the .minecraft/saves path).
- 3.Drop the .zip into that world's datapacks folder, creating the folder if it does not exist.
- 4.Load the world (or run /reload if it is already open) and run /datapack list to confirm it is enabled.
The pack is built for Minecraft 1.20 through 1.20.4, so it loads on vanilla Java without Fabric, Forge or any other mod loader. It must be enabled at world creation via the Experiments screen, since this is an install method world experiment and cannot be safely added to an existing world.
