Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Fabric only.

Minecraft 1.16.2

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

You've heard of it before, and you most likely hate it! That's right: dancing to grow trees is back and better than ever on Fabric!

Stand near crops, saplings, or other fertilizable content and spam the shift key. It will slowly grow! The more passionate your dance is (shifting and sprinting), the faster the growth occurs. Everything is fully configurable in the config file at config/danceofgrowth.json5.
