What is ResourceModLoader

ResourceModLoader is a loader for non-executable resource mods, and a library for Java mods.

Minecraft Java Edition 1.13 added data packs. Before that, resource packs already had a few data-pack features: JSON recipes from More Recipes, JSON advancements from mods, and similar. Those features only worked inside mods. They did not work in a real resource pack.

RML packages a zip, jar, or directory that contains rml.info as a Forge mod and runs those data files. After CraftTweaker and KubeJS support, many people also use it to ship scripts. That is no longer a pure low-code data pack.
