Download & Install

Players: the installer

1. Download the latest oml-installer-<version>.jar from GitHub Releases.
2. Double-click it, or run java -jar oml-installer-<version>.jar.
3. Pick a target:

Target	What it does
Standard launcher	Writes a launcher version that inheritsFrom the vanilla one, plus the OML runtime layer, into the game directory of any standard launcher (PCL2, HMCL, …)
Prism launcher	Registers an OML component on a Prism instance
Dedicated server	Lands a server directory with start scripts

4. After installing, select the OML version (e.g. 26.3-OML) in your launcher and start the game. The game itself ( client jar, libraries, natives, assets) is downloaded by the launcher — the installer only installs the OML layer.

Developers: Maven coordinates

All artifacts live under the org.ohmyloader group, current version 0.1.0-SNAPSHOT:

Artifact	Purpose
oml-api	The only compile-time dependency a mod needs: events, lifecycle, content declaration, injection DSL
oml-core	The loader core (runtime layer)
oml-launcher	The bootstrap header (runtime layer)
oml-adapter-26_3	The 26.3 stable-line adapter (runtime layer)
oml-adapter-snapshot	The latest-snapshot adapter (for snapshot tracking)
oml-native	The Zstd codec native library (optional; falls back to vanilla implementations)

The current publishing channel is GitHub Packages (an interim server until a dedicated Maven repository exists; reading it requires a GitHub token). For local development, use mavenLocal — clone the loader repository and run ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal, see Your First Mod.
