Introducing Minecraft Modpack Manager Lite

I have released the first usable build of a new MC Modpack Manager version

Introducing Minecraft Modpack Manager Lite.

\n

Today I have released a new edition of Minecraft Modpack Manager.

\n

The main differences between the full version (MC Modpack Manager Reborn), and the lite version are listed here:

\n
    \n
  • The lite version DOES NOT feature CurseForge/Modrinth downloads.
  • \n
  • The lite version DOES NOT feature translations to other languages.
  • \n
  • The lite version DOES NOT feature anonymous opt-in analytics.
  • \n
  • The lite version DOES NOT feature exporting/importing modpacks.
  • \n
  • The lite version DOES NOT feature easy installation options (MS Store/Flathub).
  • \n
  • The lite version is written in Rust using the Slint UI framework.
  • \n
  • The lite version has a GPLv3 license, meanwhile the full version uses MPL 2.0.
  • \n
\n

Why

\n
    \n
  • I suspect that some people may not like the fact that the full edition uses some proprietary APIs.
  • \n
  • I wanted to learn the Slint UI framework.
  • \n
\n

The project is still in preview stage. It will get out of it if there will not be any bug reports within the next month.
