An in-game mod browser and downloader. Search, install, and manage mods + dependencies directly from the main menu without leaving Minecraft.
Description
📦 Source: In-Game Mod Browser
Stop Alt-Tabbing to download mods! Source is a lightweight, vanilla-style mod browser that allows you to search and install mods directly from your Minecraft main menu.
✨ Features
- In-Game Search: Browse thousands of mods from the Modrinth database instantly.
- One-Click Install: Just click "GET", and the mod handles the rest.
- Auto-Dependencies: No more crashes! Source automatically detects and downloads required libraries (like Kotlin, Flywheel, Architectury).
- Update Checker: See which of your mods have updates available.
- Native UI: Designed to look and feel like a part of vanilla Minecraft.
🛠️ How it works
- Open the Source menu from the Title Screen.
- Type the name of a mod (e.g., "JEI", "Create").
- Click GET.
- Restart the game to apply changes.
Note: A game restart is required after installation because Minecraft Forge cannot load code dynamically at runtime. This tool streamlines the downloading process, saving you from navigating browser tabs and ads.
