Achievements
Every advancement in Minecraft — requirements, rewards, tips.
The Advancements database covers every advancement in Minecraft Java Edition across all five trees: Story, Adventure, Nether, The End, and Husbandry. Each entry shows the exact trigger condition, the parent advancement, the experience reward, and tips for completing tricky ones.
Hidden advancements (those marked with the question-mark icon in-game) are also documented — usually requiring a specific weird interaction the game does not hint at.
