About
Blockception Minecraft Bedrock Development is a free extension for building Minecraft Bedrock Addons and Minecraft Education Edition content. It supports .mcfunction, .json, .lang, and .molang files, with format-specific editing tools. JSON support includes validation, completions, hovers, signatures, code lens, code actions, and schemas. For .mcfunction, it provides completion, formatting, code actions, diagnostics, go to definition, regions, symbols, syntax highlighting, and validation files. The .lang tools include formatting, diagnostics, regions, symbols, and syntax highlighting. It can read .mcattributes, .mcdefinitions, and .mcignore project files. A setting adds Education Edition items, blocks, entities, and commands to suggestions and debugging. Inline debug values can show mcfunction and Molang variable lookups, but this option is off by default. The project is licensed under BSD 3-Clause and maintained by Blockception and the open-source community. The earlier extension repository was archived on September 28, 2025, and points to Minecraft Bedrock Language Server as its successor.
