What are mixins?

Mixins are a way to inject code or change the minecraft source code directly and should be use with caution. If you can do a PR to Forge or use an event, try those first. If all else fails, then mixins may be a good option to look into. Here are some resources for mixins:

Mixin Official Docs: https://github.com/SpongePowered/Mixin/wiki
Mixin Javadocs: https://jenkins.liteloader.com/view/Other/job/Mixin/javadoc/index.html
Mixin Cheatsheet: https://github.com/2xsaiko/mixin-cheatsheet
MixinExtras (Adds some powerful compatiable mixin options! See their wiki): https://github.com/LlamaLad7/MixinExtras

Now, I'll be honest, the official mixin doc is kind of terrible to learn from for most people. It's extremely dense and and really only helps people who already knows in-depth bytecode and stuff. But most modders aren't like that and just wants to do small stuff lol. But I'll give you the run-down here. There's a few kinds of mixins that you will encounter quite often.

When you mixin into a non-static inner class, the inner class has a hidden field that stores the instance of the outer class. It is a bit tricky to get it but it can be done.

Forge:

Step one, go to the Forge jar and find the class in question. Open it in Intellij

Forge PRs can be quite tricky to understand and get working but if you can get your new event or hook or fix into Forge, you benefit a ton of modders! Don't let the idea of a Forge PR scare you or seem too daunting! Just follow this gist and hopefully you'll get the hang of it!

The first step is check out gigaherz's gist for creating a PR:

Biome Tags are awesome!

As a result of 1.18.2 changes, all worldgen registries can now have tags. Including biomes! As a result of this, Mojang has deprecated the biome category which means that sooner or later, this enum will be deleted. To better protect yourself and your mod/datapack from relying on these categories, you should instead, switch to using biome tags.

The existing biome tags from vanilla do not cover all usecases which means that many modders have started banding together to decide on common biome tags to use. These common biome tags are under the forge: namespace and the c: namespace.

For best compatibility with any mod or datapack, you should have a custom tag that pulls entries from minecraft:, forge:, and c: tags. Yes, datapacks too should be adding their biomes to the forge: and c: namespaced tags. And mods can "datagen" the tag json files automatically but that is outside the scope of this gist.
