NuKnossos a complete rewrite of the old Knossos mod manager. Nebula also lives here since it's easier to manage both projects in a single monorepo. If you're looking for the old code, go to https://github.com/ngld/old-knossos.
Currently mods can be installed in "user mode" or "dev mode". "user mode" attempts to be compatible with older launchers (wxLauncher, YAL, ...) while "dev mode" is more flexible since each package has its own folder.
This means Knossos doesn't have to rely on FSO for the load order and can directly control it through ordering in the -mod flag.
It also allows us to enable or disable packages whenever we launch FSO.
