I'm sure with a little bit of changing around some file paths and commands you could make a linux/mac version.

But the source code is available. Which means you can fork it and build .deb, .rpm and flatpak packages.

brb, gonna make a script that takes a 3.0 mod's github repo, downloads all the assets, then builds an Electron app out of it

i was thinking you could add it to your mod launcher so your app would feel more fluid (just opening a mod in the browser feels… idk, jarring ig)

Ye that would be cool!
Imagine having Turbowarp with latest souce code.
But you’ll need to write that in lua.
Or in language that can compile to executable that can be run in terminal or command prompt
so user doesnt need to install infinite amount of programs to get one feature working.
And i was thinking of adding smth like direct download to build no 3.

So plans for build no 3 for now:
Compatibility with other operating systems
Direct download
And less bugs

btw can you tell i typed this on phone?

I was going to write it as a CLI program written in python (with a .bat file that serves as an alias)

svelte will work best, since its fast

i've heard of astro, but its not that beginner-friendly.

yeah, i'd choose svelte.
i did something like this before, but i used lua like this at the moment
tbh lua is quite good, but is more for games than things like this
