Common questions about /function

›Where do function files go?

In a data pack under data/<namespace>/function/. Older packs used the folder name functions; 1.21 switched it to the singular function.

›How do macros work?

A line starting with $ can contain $(key) placeholders. Call it with /function pack:name with {key:"value"} and the line is rebuilt before it runs.
