This datapack, essentially, semi-randomly expands or shrinks the worldborder, allowing for contained minecraft, but it will grow overall.
It will start you off with a shrinking border, which will shrink down to 300 blocks, at a speed slightly slower than walking. This is done so that you hopefully do not start off in an ocean biome, with no trees or any resources, and unable to swim over to that island with a tree on it just a little bit outside the border.
Make sure to collect some dirt and saplings, just in case your starting region does not have any trees, so that you are not stuck waiting, hoping, for the border to expand.
The ultimate region you end up in could very well end up being just about anything.. a desert, a nice forest, or a completely open ocean with absolutely nothing of value. Feel free to just give up and start a new world, but if you want to stick it out, you need a source of wood to do just about anything.
How it works is pretty simple, using the random choices library, it uses the provided predicates to roll for whether or not the border will shift in any way, adding a point when it succeeds in any roll. Every time the sun reaches its peak, both expansion and shrink will roll, (40% and 30% respectively)
Should any of these points be present when day arrives or night falls, It will have a 50% chance to reduce the respective point count by 1, so long as it is above 0, and expand or shrink the border. (Expansion is 100 blocks, while shrink is 50.)
(Also includes a variant inside the datafolder, to install just unzip the file and replace the already present border folder with the one you just unzipped.
There is one variant, the Boost Variant, which gives bonus blocks at certain hours played on the world.
More information on this can be gained through either the description included inside the zipped folder, or by looking at the update logs.)
I have separated a version of the former Level Variant into a seperate datapack. If you are interested, the datapack is located here.

Boost Variant Update : by hungwarrior 09/23/2021 4:50:18 pmSeptember 23, 2021 @ 8:50 pm UTC
I have added a zipped file including this variant to the Data folder, because this is a major change that I wasn't sure everyone would enjoy, as it does make things significantly easier in the long run. So I made it a choice whether or not to use it.
Instructions on installation have been added to the bottom of the description
This variant adds time based boosts to the border, by adding the points corresponding to the expansion size to the normal expansions.. So when these trigger, you will have a long period of near daily expansions until the stored points run out. This does not stop normal rolls from adding points either, so you don't lose those at all.
The first border boost happens after 4 hours of gameplay, with 1000 blocks worth of points added.
The second boost happens at 12 hours, adding 2500 blocks.
And the final boost happens at 24 hours adding a final 5000.
This leaves you with more than 8500 blocks of bonus blocks just for having installed the variant, and at that size you may as well not have a world border, unless you happen to like exploring.

Have something to say?
Sometimes the setup file for datapacks doesn't trigger properly on installation, so rejoining the world will fix that if that is what happened.
Otherwise, just be patient for the worldborder to shrink, the process is supposed to take a full 20 minute day-night cycle, and you won't normally see it until nightfall at least.
All other functions of the datapack only occur AFTER the initial shrink is complete.
