mcl

minecraft launcher for linux and maybe macos

what does it do

download many versions
download assets
download libraries
set up natives
select the correct libraries for the version
get an authentication token (microsoft auth only)
instances
launch the game

what does it not do

optifine, forge, etc
support external natives (openbsd, freebsd, etc)
windows support. i will not be adding this

why not use the regular launcher

closed source
really buggy for some reason
i would call it bloated but honestly this is probably slower

why not a third party launcher

theyre all too complex and weird and have Discourse
