This is a heavliy modified fork of Magic Sorting System to fit the specific needs of my own server. I have renamed this version to Scientific Sorting System, because it is going to get technical.
The instructions include inline images at https://github.com/isaaclepes/Scientific-Sorting-System
The datapack will let you use item frames to sort items. Any item placed on a sorting pad will be teleported to the closest sorting target item frame containing the same item type. To sort coal, add coal to the item frame. You can place them over hoppers to add the sorted items to any container.
