Big List of Modpack Things

Also see the Modrinth Awesome list, and a (probably somewhat outdated) list of curse modpack downloaders at https://gist.github.com/jikuja/f44533a16ad04624c3eb8e99e7a3e494/

This list is a bit outdated in places, but I'm still adding things here so that I don't forget them.

1.13 and 1.14 are lumped together in this doc, you're on your own if you just want to go to 1.13 and not 1.14, for some reason.

1.15 stuff: https://gist.github.com/williewillus/30d7e3f775fe93c503bddf054ef3f93e

Things in Advance

• ResourceLocation now throw on non-snake-case names instead of silently lowercasing for you, so you probably should go and change all those string constants now. More precisely, domains must only contain alphanumeric lowercase, underscore (_), dash (-), or dot (.). Paths have the same restrictions, but can also contain forward slashes (/).
