This is a **fork** of the MultiMC Launcher and not endorsed by MultiMC. The PolyMC community felt that the maintainer was not acting in the spirit of Free Software so this fork was made. Read "[Why was this fork made?](https://github.com/PolyMC/PolyMC/wiki/FAQ)" on the wiki for more details. <br> # Installation - All packages (archived by version) can be found [here](https://packages.polymc.org/) ([latest](https://packages.polymc.org/latest)). - Last build status: https://jenkins.polymc.org/job/PolyMC/lastBuild/ ## 🐧 Linux ### <img src="https://www.vectorlogo.zone/logos/linuxfoundation/linuxfoundation-icon.svg" height="20" alt=""/> Cross-distro packages <a href='https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.polymc.PolyMC'><img width='240' alt='Download on Flathub' src='https://flathub.org/assets/badges/flathub-badge-en.png'/></a> <a href="https://packages.polymc.org/latest/appimage/PolyMC-latest-x86_64.AppImage"><img src="https://docs.appimage.org/_images/download-appimage-banner.svg" width="240" alt="Download as AppImage" /></a> - [AppImage SHA256](https://packages.polymc.org/latest/appimage/PolyMC-latest-x86_64.AppImage.sha256) ### <img src="https://www.vectorlogo.zone/logos/archlinux/archlinux-icon.svg" height="20"/> Arch Linux There are several AUR packages available: [](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/polymc/) [](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/polymc-bin/) [](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/polymc-git/) ```sh # stable source package: yay -S polymc # stable binary package: yay -S polymc-bin # latest git package: yay -S polymc-git ``` ### <img src="https://www.vectorlogo.zone/logos/debian/debian-icon.svg" height="20" /> Debian We use [makedeb](https://docs.makedeb.org/) for our Debian packages. Several MPR packages are available: [](https://mpr.makedeb.org/packages/polymc) [](https://mpr.makedeb.org/packages/polymc-bin) [](https://mpr.makedeb.org/packages/polymc-git) ```sh # stable source package: sudo tap install polymc # stable binary package: sudo tap install polymc-bin # latest git package: sudo tap install polymc-git ``` ### <img src="https://www.vectorlogo.zone/logos/nixos/nixos-icon.svg" height="20" /> Nix A [Nix derivation](packages/nix/NIX.md) is available. ### <img src="https://www.gentoo.org/assets/img/logo/gentoo-signet.svg" height="20" /> Gentoo A Gentoo ebuild is available in the [swirl](https://git.swurl.xyz/swirl/ebuilds) overlay, named `games-action/polymc`. ```sh # as root: emerge --oneshot eselect-repository eselect repository enable swirl emaint sync -r swirl emerge polymc # to use latest git version: sudo tee -a /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords <<< "=games-action/polymc-9999 **" ``` ### <img src="https://www.vectorlogo.zone/logos/getfedora/getfedora-icon.svg" height="20"> Fedora An RPM package is available on [COPR](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/polymc/polymc/). ```sh sudo dnf copr enable polymc/polymc sudo dnf install polymc ``` Alternatively, a COPR maintained by a PolyMC user (instead of Jenkins' automated builds) is available [here](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/sentry/polymc). ```sh sudo dnf copr enable sentry/polymc sudo dnf install polymc ``` ## <img src="https://www.vectorlogo.zone/logos/microsoft/microsoft-icon.svg" height="20" /> Windows [Windows (32-bit)](https://packages.polymc.org/latest/win32/win32.zip) ([SHA256](https://packages.polymc.org/latest/win32/win32.zip.sha256)) - this is a portable package, you can extract it anywhere and run it. This package needs testing. ## <img src="https://www.vectorlogo.zone/logos/apple/apple-tile.svg" height="20" /> MacOS MacOS currently does not have any packages. We are still working on setting up MacOS packaging. Meanwhile, you can [build](https://github.com/PolyMC/PolyMC/blob/develop/BUILD.md#macos) it for yourself. ## <img src="https://lotar.altervista.org/wiki/_media/news/slackware-logo.png" height="20" /> Slackware [A SlackBuild](https://codeberg.org/glowiak/SlackBuilds/src/branch/master/repository/polymc.md) is available. You will need [qt5](http://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/libraries/qt5/) (on 15.0 installed by default), [a JDK](https://codeberg.org/glowiak/SlackBuilds/src/branch/master/repository/adoptium-jdk8.md), and if you're on 14.2, you need to compile newer CMake version manually. If you are too lazy to do all these steps, you can just download [a prebuild x86_64 package](https://codeberg.org/attachments/0547129b-3910-4b46-89fb-50b3221576b1) and install it with /sbin/installpkg. ## <img src="https://kaworu.ch/images/freebsd-logo.png" height="20" /> FreeBSD For FreeBSD available are: -[AppBSD Image](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QLYWGkLSjVb8-lhICivozZQDwYEWBack/view?usp=sharing) - a portable application, requires [AppBSD](https://codeberg.org/glowiak/appbsd/) to be installed. -[Gzipped binaries](https://codeberg.org/attachments/7aa74368-1f55-49be-abd8-0b8258e63e38) - traditional way to distribute, unpack and run. In both cases you need X11, Qt5 and Java installed # Help & Support Feel free to create an issue if you need help. However, you might find it easier to ask in the Discord server. [](https://discord.gg/xq7fxrgtMP) For people who don't want to use Discord, we have a Matrix Space which is bridged to the Discord server: [](https://matrix.to/#/#polymc:polymc.org) If there are any issues with the space or you are using a client that does not support the feature here are the individual rooms: [](https://matrix.to/#/#support:polymc.org) [](https://matrix.to/#/#discussion:polymc.org) [](https://matrix.to/#/#development:polymc.org) [](https://matrix.to/#/#news:polymc.org) # Development If you want to contribute to PolyMC you might find it useful to join our Discord Server or Matrix Space. ## Building If you want to build PolyMC yourself, check [BUILD.md](BUILD.md) for build instructions. ## Code formatting Just follow the existing formatting. In general, in order of importance: - Make sure your IDE is not messing up line endings or whitespace and avoid using linters. - Prefer readability over dogma. - Keep to the existing formatting. - Indent with 4 space unless it's in a submodule. - Keep lists (of arguments, parameters, initializers...) as lists, not paragraphs. It should either read from top to bottom, or left to right. Not both. ## Translations TODO ## Forking/Redistributing/Custom builds policy Do whatever you want, we don't care. Just follow the license. If you have any questions about this feel free to ask in an issue.
