About

Ari is a third-party Minecraft Launcher which is SUPER EASY to use.

Originally this is called Alicorn The Corrupted Heart in memorizing the previous work Alicorn. The name Ari comes from the spelling of "Alicorn" in Japanese: アリコーン (Arikōn).

Motivation

Actually I'm not playing Minecraft any longer. However, haven't left a work good enough is a pity. So I designed this super easy-going launcher. I hope it can solve some problems by introducting more people into this game.

Please read the guidelines below, so that we can get things done faster. This is the simple E.S.P. rule.

• E: All issues and pull requests MUST be written in English.

  • You can also provide a translated version.

  • This also applies to code comments.

  • This is for standardizing. Or you'll see a messy issue section.

• S: Search for existing issues or PRs before opening any.

  • If the previous issue or PR was closed but not locked and you want to comment, feel free to do that. It will be reopened if necessary.

  • If the previous issue or PR was locked, it means it won't be continued anymore. Don't open a new one. E-mail us instead if there are special circumstances.

• P: Be polite to other contributors and collaborators.

  • We're here to launch the world, not to argue. Getting things done quickly is better than wasting each other's time.
