Pre-End Elytra Crafting (Easy)

A balanced Crafting recipe for an elytra this is the easy mode recipe.

Pre-end Elytra Crafting you actually have to work for.

With some netherite scrap, an eye of ender, some phantom membrane, and a netherite smithing template you can make your own elytra without ever going to the end. 

This requires you to stay up late, dig for ancient debris, visit a bastion and a nether fortress to make an elytra.  The hard version requires you to visit an ancient city (You can find this in my other projects.)
