Hi forum,

The x minecraft launcher is a new open-source Minecraft launcher based on electron and opened for beta. (Some features might be unstable)

The github link is Voxelum/x-minecraft-launcher: A Minecraft launcher providing mod management with beautiful UI (github.com)

If you are interested, feel free to fork the repo and try it out by yourself!

Features

It supports basic operations on Launcher:

• 🎮 Install Minecraft (auto-complete)
• 🔨 Install Forge
• 📜 Install Fabric
• 🚀 Launcher Minecraft (at least from 1.8 to 1.18 latest, I didn't test mcuh on legacy Minecraft)
• ☁️ Login for both Mojang & Microsoft (also support offline loggin)
• ☕ Install java if needed

It also has some advance features:

• 🗃️ Game instances managing.
• ⚙️ Mod management
• 🎨 Resource pack management
• ✨ Shader pack management
• 🔥 Install mod/resourcepack/maps/modpack from Curseforge (since Curseforge will deprecate their API, I'm not sure how long this feature will work...)
• 🟢 Install mod from Modrinth

Download

Top on mind...

I develop this in my free time, currently I'm working on some interesting features:

• Register in Microsoft store --- so the installer won't warn user that publisher is untrusted
• If this don't work, I might buy a real code sign....

• Make the app be able to load new launcher UI by a single url of html
• Since it's electron, it can load any html. I would like to open the API and let user to customize the UI by loading html url which hosted on web.
• With this feature, I believe user can customize their launcher easily, which might be useful for the person who is hosting a dedicated server and want his user has unique UI to join server with launcher.

If anyone even views this, is it safe?
