The gist that I got from that is that it adds a lot of mechanics to manufacture items that would otherwise be un-manufacturable in Minecraft. Seeds and ore nuggets from sifting dirt and sand, silkworms for string (otherwise only obtainable from mobs), up to an infinite lava source source at the end of the video. This is important for skyblock games since you have access to nothing from the map generator, basically.
I don't think there is such a mod, but you could write one piece by piece. Start with your own skyblock, or from someone else's, and keep a list of "stuff I can't get because I only started with dirt and a tree". Then you can slowly add ways to get this stuff based on what you already could get. The video did have some great ideas, I think.
