5 best resource packs for Minecraft builders

Since the release of Minecraft, the community has found various ways of customizing the game. Installing resource packs is one of the easiest ways to modify the game's look and features. For those unaware, resource packs are a combination of files that can be downloaded and installed in Minecraft.

Unlike mods and datapacks, they can only bring changes to how things such as block textures and items look. They do not add new features to them or change how they work. Resource packs can be easily installed by downloading a pack and moving it to Minecraft's data folder.
