Recommendations: Modular SVE
This is a list of mods that seeks to create an Stardew Valley Expanded-like experience without using SVE, for people that can't or don't want to use that mod or who want some parts without using others.
This list isn't intended to be an "install all of these" list! It's a collection of mods that have similar effects to some of SVE's features so that people can mix-and-match the elements they like the look of. For this reason, it also leaves off a number of other wonderful mods simply because they have a different scope or don't have an equivalent feature in SVE.
Not all of the mods on this list will be compatible with each other if they add or edit similar things; please read the descriptions on each mod's page carefully to check for any incompatibilities!
