Our verdict on BEPack
BEPack is an open-source command-line build and release tool for Minecraft Bedrock Edition add-ons. It is designed for developers creating behavior packs, resource packs, and code-based projects using the Minecraft Bedrock Script API. The tool can create or import pack configurations, synchronize manifests, resolve Script API dependencies, and target current or exact Bedrock versions. Its free, open-source model suits developers who want a build workflow rather than a visual editing environment.
Its strongest area is the development pipeline. BEPack compiles TypeScript behavior-pack scripts, runs TypeScript type checking before builds, watches files for rebuilds, and copies packs into Minecraft development folders. Developers can also configure Rolldown bundling options and optimize packaged packs with __brarchive archives. These features bring configuration, checking, local development, and packaging into one code-oriented workflow.
For release work, BEPack creates .mcpack and .mcaddon archives and supports configurable pack targets. The workflow requires Node.js 20 or later, so it is better suited to developers already comfortable with a Node.js-based toolchain. It should be a strong fit for TypeScript-focused Bedrock pack projects that need repeatable builds, dependency handling, and release archives. Developers looking for a visual editor or a broader non-code creation environment should choose a different type of tool.
