Collapsible Groups

Collapsible Groups is a client-side JEI companion mod that lets you organize the ingredient list into tidy, collapsible groups, reducing visual clutter and making it easier to find what you need.

Group Showcase

Features

Group Manager

Collapsible Ingredient Groups

Group related entries such as colored glass, wool, shulker boxes, fluids, and more into a single collapsible entry in JEI. Expand or collapse groups at any time, and your preferences are saved automatically.

Powerful Filter System

Groups are defined using a flexible filter expression system:

Match by item ID, tag, or namespace
Intersect multiple tags for precise filtering
Navigate component paths for advanced matching
Supports item, fluid, and custom JEI ingredient types

Built-In Default Groups

Out of the box, the mod includes sensible defaults for common ingredient clutter:

Vanilla colored blocks such as glass, wool, carpet, terracotta, concrete, shulker boxes, beds, banners, candles, and more
Generic fluid and other ingredient groups

Built-In Mod Integrations

Chipped Group

Collapsible Groups can also load built-in default group providers for supported mods, helping large content mods stay organized with minimal setup.

Examples include Chipped, Chisel Modern, Rechiseled, Refined Storage 2, AE2, and more on supported loaders.
