For Fallout 4 the is that huge mods page, which covers mods for ALOT of games. https://www.nexusmods.com They have their own mod manager called NMM or Nexus mod manager. You can manually load mods into this manager to manage them from there on.

It would be great if onw could load a mod from a directory, zip file, etc into the CDDA launcher. So far the only option I see for CDDA-Launcher is to "suggest a mod on Github".

I only have very basic coding skills and understanding to make mods happen. This feature would help me alot to get modding going in a more controlled way as a Go-To resource.

I've been considering this for a while now. Just need a nice place to add that button on the UI. Most of the code if present to perform this already.

Perhaps just a folder we can drop it in in the game directory? Have them start as disabled mods and require them to be activated to add to new installs.
