What is the CFAN?

The Cool Factorio Archive Network is a repository of metadata about mods for Factorio, and associated tools to work with this metadata.

Additionally, using this metadata it's possible to write safe and robust mod managers that can guarantee that mods are installed exactly as they are supposed to.

CFAN is fork of CKAN. Images on this wiki still depict CKAN client, but it looks almost exactly the same (save for different game name and icon).
