Intended outcome: Got a custom slime mob that I want to basically work as a moving light
 

What is the current easiest/best way to have that happen? I read a post from 2020 which involved a whole bunch of placing invisible blocks/ deleting them after/ placing a new one. Is that still the way people do it without coding manually?

Edit: Figured it out
