We are using Swifty as our repo downloader. Swifty is a simplistic modpack manager aimed to be a solution for communities hosting their own modpacks.

Swifty can be downloaded via this URL: https://getswifty.net/download.html


Download the installer and once opened, click the + sign in the upper right. In the URL, enter http://swifty.fparma.com/

After that Swifty should take care of the rest.
