Things to Note

Please note that I (RyanTheAllmighty) have created this alone up until now and being a 1st year Computer Science student, my coding may not be the best, most accurate or efficient, so please keep that in mind.

Other than that, I am releasing this as an Open Source project in hopes that others may contribute to better our Launcher and because I think Open Source is a good thing.

Coding Standards

Please keep all line lengths to 100 characters and use 4 spaces rather than tab characters

Building

Windows

Requirements
Java Development Kit (JDK)

Download and install the latest version from Oracle's Java Downloads page.

Apache Ant

Install Apache Ant via the official Apache Ant Install Docs.

launch4j

Download and install launch4j.

Make sure to add the directory containing launch4jc to your executable path which for me on 64bit Windows was:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Launch4j

Pluging In Your Data

To get started with the code and plug in your own data, you need to replace the following files

/src/com/atlauncher/data/Settings.java

%APIURL% should be replaced with a link to your server side API for processing of leaderboard times and pack installs

/src/com/atlauncher/gui/ConsoleBottomBar.java & /src/com/atlauncher/data/Instance.java

%PASTECHECKURL% should be replaced with a link to the url where an instance of stikked is running (For instance http://www.mypaste.com) this is how the launcher knows if the paste was successful by checking the response from the API for the url of the software.

/src/com/atlauncher/utils/Utils.java

%PASTEAPIURL% should be replaced with a link to the create api command for the instance of stikked is running (For instance http://www.mypaste.com/api/create/)

/src/com/atlauncher/data/Settings.java

// INSERT SERVERS HERE should be replaced with the addition of your servers to the servers ArrayList such as details below

servers.add(new Server("Test", "sometest.myserver.com"));

How to make your data

To make the data the Launcher needs you will need to figure out your own server side way of doing that. You can create a system to do it automatically or you can manually do it by just popping the files on the server. The best way to get the file structure and contents is to examine the source code and the ATLauncher files it downloads.
