Question

I’m making a package management utility for Minecraft mods, a lot of which are
distributed using MediaFire. I’d like to be able to download the mod files directly off
MediaFire. I tried poking around in the page source, but I don’t know enough HTML or Javascript for that to be useful. How would I go about downloading a file off MediaFire given the URL for the download page?

Answer 1

It starts and ends with reading MediaFire Acceptable Use Policy

other device to retrieve or index any portion of the Services, with
