Minecraft Bedrock uses a different add-on model from Java Edition. If you see a Bedrock project using similar naming, verify that it is published for Bedrock and do not mix files intended for different editions.

Bedrock Edition Notes
Start with the exact release you plan to use. Compare its supported Minecraft version, required loader, dependency list, and any upgrade notes. These details are more reliable than assumptions based on the mod name alone.
Before making changes, duplicate your important world and keep the previous working profile. This gives you a fast recovery path if a new version behaves differently or another mod causes a conflict.
Recommended Workflow
Test the smallest setup first, confirm it launches, then add optional mods in controlled steps. If an error appears, the most recent change becomes much easier to identify. Keep logs and crash reports because they usually provide stronger evidence than guessing.
What to Check Next
Once the profile is stable, review controls, configuration, multiplayer requirements, and performance. If you update later, repeat the same backup-and-test process instead of replacing multiple components at once.
