With the explosion of data on jet based observables in relativistic heavy-ion collisions at the Large Hadron Collider and the Relativistic Heavy-Ion Collider, perturbative QCD based simulations of these processes, often interacting with an expanding viscous fluid dynamical background, have taken center stage. This review is meant to bridge the gap between theory, simulation and phenomenology of jet modification in a dense medium. We will demonstrate how the existence of such end-to-end event generators with semi-realistic or even fully realistic final states allows for the most rigorous comparisons between pQCD based jet modification theory and experiment. State-of-the-art calculations of several jet based observables are presented. Extensions of this theory to jets in the small systems of $p$-$A$ and $e$-$A$ collisions is discussed.
