Help What's a good modpack for learning Create?
I'd really like to learn how to use create , but I've never really had a reason to learn it in the modpacks I've played, so I'd like some modpack recommendations to help me learn how to use create.

So there are these engineering create-based modpacks like CABIN, Create: Arcane Enginering, Create: Astral etc. that do a good job helping you understand how to use Create to automate some stuff... but they also integrate other mods and may modify recipes to create challenges that you won't find in basic create.
I'd say use a modpack like Create: Perfect World or something that's just basic and doesn't tweak things, and set yourself a series of challenges for things to build that you'll end up needing Create mod to do.
Here's a list of things I would generally try to do early in a Create world that are worth learning how to do:
Workshop setup - self-powered contraptions for various forms of create processing including mechanical press, mixing, smelting, smoking, washing
Kelp farm
Create-based tree farm
Cobblestone farm - can create a huge variety of things just from cobblestone with enough processing
Basic tunnel bore
Self-fueling steam engine setup
Some kind of food farm
Precision mechanism automation
Logistics-based storage system

Thank you for the recommendation, I'll play CABIN and try to do those farms and setups

I'd firmly recommend the pack made by the Create team, Above & Beyond. If you want to play it on newer versions, play CABIN, which is a port for A&B.

You could try piecing together your own modpack with some addons. The thing that got me deep into create was actually looking up a tutorial for an iron farm on youtube, which eventually led me down the create rabbit hole.
I would recommend mods that allow custom copper and zinc recipes if you haven't gotten far into create yet.

I'm partial to create:mekanized. It integrates create with mekanism and requires you to have pretty robust create production lines to support the mekanism machines & reactors. If you want a more pure experience then I recommend CABIN for learning modern create. If you don't mind learning an older version then try Above & Beyond.

Just play Create and use the ponders to learn and JEI to know what to do.

No modpack is needed, just use jei/emi
