3.3.0

This update polishes the app a little more and fixes a couple of annoying bugs, it also adds an option to add "required mods" which are mods that will basically be ignored during debugging, so they will always be there.

This update brings one of the most anticipated features that has been asked for since day 1, automatic game launching! (For now this only works for people using Prism Launcher). Anyways the app now has an option to automatically launch your game during debug testing so you don't have to do it manually. Enjoy! :D

3.0.0

3.0.0 is a whole new upgrade for the Modpack Debugger Kit. The previous python codebase was contained within a singular script and was quickly getting monolithic, very hard for me to maintain, and very hard for me to find stuff in, the choice to make the program python-based originally was simply because it was the only language I felt I was good enough at to make such a program.
However, over the past couple of months, I have been spending a fair majority of my free time trying to learn Go, specifically desktop app development via the amazing Wails V2 library. Now, I believe I have reached a stage where I am well-versed enough in the language to refactor the entirety of MDK into Go.

With this update, a lot of things have been changed on the backend (on top of the obvious fact that the app is an entirely different programming language). For starters, I have aimed to make the codebase much more modular as opposed to a giant monolithic script. This should make it easier for me to maintain the software and for others to contribute. Next, the app should have a much lower memory footprint and should perform better overall. Lastly, the GUI should look much nicer, given it is now developed using HTML, CSS, and JS, which gives me significant flexibility over CustomTkinter. (Note: THIS IS NOT AN ELECTRON APP, I HATE ELECTRON APPS. There is NOT a full browser packaged in here.)

We also have a new roadmap page which is just a copy of the Kanban board I have been using throughout this whole project, so you can see the upcoming / planned features and completed ones there! Feel free to suggest new features by opening a feature request issue. New roadmap page: https://wendellcraft.github.io/Roadmaps/modpack-debugger-kit

Do take note however, while I have tried to iron out many of the bugs and flaws I had during testing, with a new language likely comes new bugs that I have not caught, so please if you encounter any issues on any platforms please open an issue. With that out of the way, I introduce to you, Modpack Debugger Kit 3.0.0!
