π¦ PAX - The minecraft modpack manager for professionals
PAX is the solution to modern modpack development for Minecraft, usable both alone and in a team. It supports Forge & Fabric, can be version controlled with git, and one command is all you need in order to upload your pack to Curseforge.
The following features are implemented:
β¨οΈ CLI interface for quick actions- π Search & Install for Curseforge mods
- π₯ Updating one mod or the whole modpack, automatically selecting the best available version
ποΈ Mod Information (compability & whether an update is available) at one glance (see above picture ;) )πΎ Easily diffable files for ease of working with gitπ€ Continous Integration where you push your project to Github/Gitlab and a runner automatically builds your modpack and uploads it to Curseforge. It's magic, woohoo!
The following features are on the roadmap for the following weeks:
π Minecraft Development Environment- Sync file changes between your project and your minecraft launcher, so you don't have to import your modpack every time you make a change.
