The aim of this project is to create a Minecraft modpack management system comparable to the FTB and Technic launchers. It consists of several sub-systems, including a client program ( GUI and CLI versions ) for downloading, installing, and managing their installed modpacks, an authentication API for users to log in to their SMM accounts, a REST API for web service features, and a website for modpack documentation, mod help, mod author accreditation, and user account management.
This section should list any major frameworks/libraries used to bootstrap your project. Leave any add-ons/plugins for the acknowledgements section. Here are a few examples.
Below are the usages for each module of the system:

Build releases for all components will be available here.
To use any of the components, download them to the desired run directory, install the latest version of java, and run the executable jar file. For command line execution, see the usages section for each module.
This project is developed using the Scrum methodology, as much as that can be followed by a solo dev. Current sprint progress for this project can be watched here , as well as simply following the sub-branches of the current sprint branch.
The branching strategy for this project is based on the
GitLab Flow strategy.
main
is considered to be production, and only contains
code from completed sprints. Each sprint gets its own branch, and from there the
GitHub Flow strategy is used, treating the sprint branch as main
.
When a sprint is completed, the sprint branch is merged back into main
Each sprint card is branched off of its sprint branch, and merged back in when the card is complete.
This makes developing the project solo simpler to manage, while still maintaining some rigor from
the original branching strategies mentioned earlier.
