* Do NOT modify `gradle` files.

## Code
* package `HMCLCore/org.jackhuang.hmcl.util`: HMCL development utilities.
* package `HMCL/org.jackhuang.hmcl`: HMCL UI core.
* package `HMCLCore/org.jackhuang.hmcl.core`: HMCL game launcher core.

## API
HMCLAPI is based on Event bus. There are all events below.
* org.jackhuang.hmcl.api.event
 - OutOfDateEvent - you can cancel checking new versions and upgrading by this event.
* org.jackhuang.hmcl.api.event.config
 - AuthenticatorChangedEvent
 - DownloadTypeChangedEvent
 - ThemeChangedEvent
* org.jackhuang.hmcl.api.event.launch
 - LaunchEvent
 - LaunchSucceededEvent
 - LaunchingStateChangedEvent
 - ProcessingLaunchOptionsEvent
 - ProcessingLoginResultEvent
* org.jackhuang.hmcl.api.event.process
 - JVMLaunchFailedEvent
 - JavaProcessExitedAbnormallyEvent
 - JavaProcessStartingEvent
 - JavaProcessStoppedEvent
* org.jackhuang.hmcl.api.event.version
 - LoadedOneVersionEvent
 - RefreshedVersionsEvent
 - RefreshingVersionsEvent

You can also add tabs to root window or add authenticators through IPlugin.

### Remember
* A valid plugin will have a main class that implements `org.jackhuang.hmcl.api.IPlugin`. HMCL will search all jar files in `plugins` folder and load classes that implements IPlugin.
* If you want to debug, use option: `--plugin=<Your IPlugin Class Name>` and add your jar to classpath.
* You'd better only access `org.jackhuang.hmcl.api.*`, and other classes may change in different versions.
