I'm resurrecting this thread. I have the same questions -- what will happen to Java modding in Minecraft now that Microsoft has acquired Minecraft? Is putting the time and energy into learning Java modding worthwhile?
About learning programming and Minecraft for your kids, I would highly recommend the Adventures in Minecraft book by Whaley and O'Hanlon. They have ported Raspberry Pi Minecraft so that it can be coded using Python. Much more accessible than Java! I use it in my classes as a first text-based coding language.
I use App Inventor, which is MIT's open source drag and drop interface for making Android apps. It does use Java underneath.
Just wondering if there is any way at all to write java code that would somehow control (or affect) Minecraft? Hooks from Minecraft java code to get controller's from outside the game?

I know this may be impossible but I'm asking....

Or is this a crazy dream?
TIA,

Looks amazing! Do you have an API? Just curious what's available in the code.
