A Tauri-based Minecraft launcher written in TypeScript with a permission-based plugin system
English | Русский
Kaede is in really early stages of development. Look at the plan to see more about this launcher >.<
No prior Rust knowledge is needed to contribute to this project. Most of the code was written in TypeScript using the Tauri API. These files will help in contributing:
- README for TypeScript-related code (the most important one)
- README for Rust-related code
- Contributing Guidelines
- Building from Source
I also leave comments in the code.
For launcher plugins, themes, or translations:
Pull requests are welcome. AI code is not welcome. For major changes, please open an issue first to discuss what you would like to change.
