- Verifies Java version compatibility
- Downloads and places the mod in the correct folder
- Applies required configuration automatically

| Progress UI | Real-time download and installation progress bar |
| One-click | Single `.exe` — no Python, no Java, no dependencies required |
| Safe | Open source — inspect every line before running |
| Auto-update | Repository updates automatically every 30 minutes via CI |

## FAQ

**Q: Windows Defender / SmartScreen blocks the EXE — is it safe?**  
A: Yes. The warning appears because the executable is unsigned. This project is fully open source — review the source code and build it yourself if unsure.

**Q: Which Minecraft version does this support?**  
A: The installer targets **Minecraft Java Edition 1.12.2**, the version JennyMod was built for.

**Q: Where does the mod get installed?**  
A: Into `%APPDATA%\.minecraft\mods\` by default. You can change the path in the installer UI.

**Q: Do I need Java to run the installer EXE?**  
A: No. The `.exe` is self-contained. Java is only needed to run Minecraft itself.
