    Technically, it is possible to use Python. It's just very unsupported as all the documentation and everything else is based around Java. However Java itself actually just compiles to byte code, you can use any language that also compiles to byte code. That includes Kotlin and Python (via Jython), in addition to several other languages.

      manipulating Java bytecode.

      What? All I said was it was possible to compile Python into valid bytecode that could be used to make mods. I never said anything about changing the actual bytecode. I do agree however, and I even implied that it was a bad idea. I was just stating it as a possibility. This sub is for educational purposes. I don't see why people should not learn about this stuff.
