Install and update mods from CurseForge and Modrinth through a simple command.

News — Slow progress and an Alternative CLI (2022-08-02)

Hi everyone!

I have acquired a CurseForge API key, but still want to make it easy to install mods from CurseForge without applying for a key.

Maybe that's not possible, but I have some ideas at least for improving mcman. This includes downloading mods from CurseForge.

For now though, I can point you to an awesome and in my opinion, better alternative: ferium.

Cheers, Senth
