What to know first

Cooking for Blockheads project listings referenced by this site are for Minecraft: Java Edition.

Recommended approach

MCPE/Bedrock uses a different add-on ecosystem, so a Java .jar mod should not be treated as a Bedrock add-on.

Practical check

If you are on Bedrock or mobile, look for content explicitly built for that edition rather than trying to install a Java mod file.
