In their own words
FTB App
FTB App is Feed The Beast’s desktop launcher for finding and managing modpacks, then playing them. It is the officially supported way to get FTB modpacks, and it also connects to CurseForge for discovering and installing its packs. The app supports NeoForge, Fabric, and Forge, and lets users create and share their own modpacks or add, remove, and update mods. Packs stay in separate instances, with automatic updates and controls for Java version, arguments, and RAM. Users can install FTB modpack servers through the app or a Linux command line. The app runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux; Windows uses Overwolf, while the other desktop versions use Electron without another background application. It is free to use and contains ads supporting Feed The Beast. Authentication is required to use the app, and playing Minecraft requires a Minecraft account. Its source code is available through GitHub.
