No response

Is your suggested feature related to a problem? Please describe.

I'm new to making modpacks and I'm glad that there is a feature now that tagged dependencies get automatically downloaded with their dependent mods.

But the mods in the app are not categorized, they're simply listed and you're kind of stuck with figuring out what everything is.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be really helpful for balancing these interactive systems if there was a visual flow chart or constellation depiction of these dependencies. I had to use mind mapping software to keep track of everything.

Like a branching path of dependencies, it would help us end users visually identify mixin/similar conflicts.

Describe alternatives you've considered

(I used my own mindmapping software)

Additional context

Maybe if such an idea is feasible/useful for others, it can also include links to relevantly tagged git discussions or comments the developers have made.
