Cross platform command line utility for launching Minecraft quickly and reliably with
included support for Mojang versions and popular mod loaders. It is also available as
a Rust crate for developers and bindings for C and Python (yet to come).
If you have a Rust toolchain with Cargo, you can build and install PortableMC and its CLI straight from crates.io, this is where the latest development versions are pushed first, before being built for specific targets.
cargo install portablemc-cli
This launcher would not be as functional without the contributors, and in particular the following for their bug reports, suggestions and pull requests to make the launcher better: GoodDay360, Ristovski, JamiKettunen MisileLaboratory and GooseDeveloper.
There must be a lot of hidden issues, if you want to contribute you just have to install and test the launcher, and report every issue you encounter, do not hesitate!
I'm currently working on my open-source projects on my free time. So sponsorship is an extra income that allows me to spend more time on the project! This can also help me on other open-source projects. You can sponsor this project by donating either on GitHub Sponsors or Ko-fi. I've always been passionate about open-source programming and the relative success of PortableMC have been a first surprise to me, but the fact that people are now considering to support me financially is even more rewarding! Huge thanks to Erwan Or and user10072023github for their donations!
