The datapack finds the game version/server software by placing command blocks in the overworld with specific version-related commands, and based on whether that command executed successfully, we can deduce the Minecraft version. Servers can be detected by finding new commands that they enable, such as /minecraft:, as well as different forks of bukkit/spigot adding their own versioning commands. The same strategy is employed for determining whether the server is modded by checking for the "forge" command.
