This map was originally created for Java Edition, but it has now (by request of the original author) been recreated in Bedrock Edition. Pocket Expansion is basically a new survival gamemode where you must survive in the sky in an ever-expanding environment.
The world terrain generation works very from vanilla though. Random blocks will randomly appear around you. Other randomized generations include spawned mobs and skyblock islands. This is considered one of the toughest survival challenges in Minecraft!

Mobs also spawn occasionally (and most commonly at Y:51+). That's certainly quite useful for farming.
Occasionally larger islands will spawn like this sandstone island and sometimes it includes a chest.
How does it work?
As soon as you've spawned in the world blocks will automatically start generate around you at random. Logs, planks, dirt, ores and stone are more common than let's say glowstone, concrete and wool. They spawn the most frequent at Y:50.

The key is to build high or low out of the spawning field, I personally prefer high to get sun during the day for resources. Building low brings tons of drops but also the occasional river of lava and water from above.
I haven't tried to escape the spawn field horizontally however my assumption is the field will follow you, has anyone tried?
2. if I made multiple copies of the world would the blocks be the same or different?
However, it’s annoying that the blocks can overwrite anything; including other blocks and the bedrock spawn platform. If I had placed down chests it would overwrite them too. It’s impossible to build anything because the blocks will get replaced, and slowly but surely the bedrock spawn was changing to different blocks and then being blown up by creepers. If this is fixed I would be extremely happy with the map; in its current form you just can’t do anything.
