AutoMD
by tymon-k
AutoMD lets a player install a modpack on the client by pasting a JSON configuration into the game's folder, then fetching the listed mods automatically.
What it does
Players paste a JSON configuration into the field and click the button, and the mod places the files named in it into the mods folder. A simple example file shows how the JSON structure is laid out, so a modpack can be set up without manual fetching. After a restart of Minecraft, the modpack is ready to play.
AutoMD is a client-side only Forge mod for 1.20.1. Only the player's game needs it, and the server does not. The code is released under the MIT License, and it is not open source.
