Developing a Modpack

With Pakku there is more than one modpack development strategy.
There are at least three development strategies which you can implement:

Adding (or managing) projects (using the Pakku CLI), and then downloading project files to your local modpack directory using the pakku fetch command.
Downloading the project files and adding them to your local modpack directory manually, and then synchronizing them using the pakku sync command.
Using a combination of the two.

First Strategy

To download project files to your local modpack directory, run the pakku fetch command:

pakku fetch

java -jar pakku.jar fetch

This will: download project files, remove old project files and copy manual overrides from the Pakku directory to your modpack folder.
