Glows
Java resource pack listed for Minecraft 1.16. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.

I'm not going to update this resourcepack since I stopped using OptiFine. Might come back to it later if some mod adds emissive textures to Fabric.

About Glows
This resource pack uses emissive textures to make some parts of vanilla blocks, items, and mobs glow (Images section for examples). OptiFine required.
Should work on every version since 1.13. Note: You'll need to set Options > Video Settings > Quality > Emissive textures to ON.
I have no plans to add compatibility with other resourcepacks or mods. However, you can do it yourself.
