+# Pakker
+
+A fast, reliable multiplatform modpack manager for Minecraft, written in Rust.
+
+## Overview
+
+Pakker is a command-line tool for managing Minecraft modpacks across multiple
+platforms including CurseForge, Modrinth, and GitHub. It provides a streamlined
+workflow for creating, maintaining, and distributing modpacks with support for
+automated dependency resolution, version management, and multi-platform exports.
+
+## Acknowledgments
+
+Pakker is _greatly_ inspired by [Pakku](https://github.com/juraj-hrivnak/Pakku),
+bringing similar functionality with improved performance and additional features
+through Rust implementation.
