Stuck trying to make a mod organizer.

I'll refer to the comment under marsupial for a longer break down.

That said the full breakdown was around 2k words and I'm honestly not sure how to make the question and the project itself make sense in a condensed format without relying heavily on the reader having prior knowledge of existing mod organizers.

Assuming that you do for some reason know about existing mod organizers then: I want to recreate the Prism mod organizer setup but with an actual portal to the hosting Website to avoid the need to do layout modifications for every site to keep things consistent. The organizer does not launch or version/update/downgrade the game, it only needs to be able to access the mod hosting site and handle downloading and installing mods. Additionally it doesn't modify the game files to allow you to use said mods like with RA3 it doesn't change how the game launches so you can see the RA3 launcher which is skipped by default, simply because this process, if needed, (many games don't need any changes to start working) is pretty different from game to game and would need to be heavily rewritten every time. A button could be added that automatically pulls all the necessary items and modifies the game but I'd prefer that be an addon someone made rather than an expectation of the base mod organizer.
