# Canvas Launcher
|
|
|
|
A custom Minecraft launcher designed as a Technic replacement. This launcher is designed to be reskinned by each modpack installed.
|
|
|
|
Modpacks can be added via zip files, the Technic platform, or the complimentary project Palette.
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
To start developing you'll need Go and NodeJS + NPM installed. Afterwards you'll need to install Wails. Wails requires additional system libraries. `wails doctor` scans your system for the libraries required.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
go install github.com/wailsapp/wails/v2/cmd/wails@latest
|
|
wails doctor
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After you have a functioning Wails installation, just clone the launcher.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://git.bigduckie.dev/big-duckie/canvas-launcher.git
|
|
cd canvas-launcher
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Live Development
|
|
To run the live development mode, run `wails dev`.
|
|
|
|
This sets up a Vite development server that provides hot reloads for the frontend. It also provides a backend dev server on `http://localhost:34115`. This allows you to call Go code from your browser's devtools.
|
|
## Deployment
|
|
|
|
To build this project for binary redistribution, ensure you're on your target platform. Wails *does not* reliably support cross-compilation because it relies on C binaries.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
wails build
|
|
``` |
