Introduction

Terminal Craft Launcher(TCL) is an open-source, cross-platform Minecraft launcher that will support Mod Management, Game Customizing, ModLoader Installing (Forge, NeoForge, Fabric, Quilt, LiteLoader, and OptiFine), Modpack Creating, UI Customization, and more.

TCL has amazing cross-platform capabilities. Not only does it run on different operating systems like Windows, Linux, and macOS, but it also supports various CPU architectures such as x86, ARM, MIPS, and LoongArch. You can easily enjoy Minecraft across different platforms through TCL(But the system must have a GUI).

Download

If you are Windows, Please download the EXE file, if you are FreeBSD, Linux or like-unix system you can download the No-suffix executable file. Now you can go to this page to download the release(But it's empty yet[Crying]).

Sometimes(I think) I will get a website and I can open the website download.

compile manually

If you see this, then you need to make sure you are the development people, or you know about some computer knowledge.

Ok, are you ready? I will divide this tutorial into 2 parts (or 2 different situations) to walk you through the construction.

part 1. I have Intellij IDEA

Now you type in your terminal(bash(Linux), zsh(macOS), cmd(Windows)) and type:

git clone https://github.com/lucheshidi/TerminalCraftLauncher.git

Now open your idea to this folder, you'll see 4 running configuration. The 4 configuration do the not same thing:

Configuration name	do
:app:bootRun	just run the program, but not compile.
app:build	build Jar file, we will use it.
app:install	for developers to install plugins.
Main	the Main program for TCL.

Select app:build and running it. If it appears a green SUCCESS, you are successful build the Jar. Go to the ./target/ folder it is a Jar file waiting for you!

part 2. I just have a terminal

You just need to type in the terminal(bash(Linux), zsh(macOS), cmd(Windows)):

git clone https://github.com/lucheshidi/TerminalCraftLauncher.git # clone this repository
cd TerminalCraftLauncher # go in the repository
./mvnw clean package # build Jar(Windows type no "./")
cd target # go to where the Jar file is
ls # show all the folder and file(Windows type "dir")

Now in this folder you can see a file named TerminalCraftLauncher-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar. I think you know how to do with the Jar file. or if you want to build Linux executable file or Windows EXE file, go here.

Thanks, We think there's a final day that you don't need to install openjfx on your raspberry pi and then you can play Minecraft!

Thanks, We think there's a final day that TCL will kill be another way to play Minecraft!
