Cannot export to jar

Please have a look at the screenshots below.

 

Have tried several methods for exporting:

- Workspace -> Export the mod for distribution

- the yellow icon in the upper right corner

- Control+E

 

Yet no matter how I do it, I can never export it as a .jar file, only zip.

This is a workspace for minecraft 1.15.x .

when I export as .zip and then convert it to .jar I get error from forge for being invalid.

when I place the .zip as it is within the mods folder, nothing happens within minecraft and the mod isn't even loaded.

What should I do?

 

PS. I have tried to contact the developer himself about this issue but he only tells me to Workspace -> Export the mod for distribution which is nonsense because I already

tried it.

if somebody can help me it would be everything for me. I just want to make a simple mod D':

The problem is that you selected datapack workspace type which is in ZIP format.

You probably wanted to make Forge mod, so to do this, select Forge when making a new workspace. Forge mods are in JAR format.
