If you want to know how to download & install Sky Factory 2, this is the article for you! We are going to walk you through getting Sky Factory 2 up and running perfectly, so you can start playing and having fun. Sky Factory 2 is a really cool modpack for Minecraft. It forces you to start out on a block in the sky with just one tree on it. You then have to chop down the tree and use the resources it provides to build out your entire world. It's a great concept and incredibly fun. Nevertheless, let's go ahead and get it downloaded and installed!
How To Download & Install Sky Factory 2 
Step 1) Download The ATLauncher
The first step in installing Sky Factory 2 is downloading the ATLauncher. You can do this by simply clicking the link below. It will then take you to the ‘Downloads' page for the ATLauncher. Scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page. You will see a blue download button like the one in the image above that says ‘Windows (.exe)'. Click this download button. The ATLauncher will then begin downloading!

Note: This tutorial is for Windows computers. If you are on Mac or Linux computer, you will use the ‘.jar' download, but I currently do not have any computers with those operating systems. Thus, I cannot provide you with any support on those platforms.
Step 2) Create A Folder For The ATLauncher
Once you've downloaded the ATLauncher, you need to create a folder for it. This is pretty easy. Just right click on your desktop, select ‘New', and then, click ‘Folder'. You can name this folder whatever you like. I would recommend something like ‘ATLauncher' or ‘Sky Factory 2', so it is easier for you to remember it later. Now that you've got the folder created, just drag and drop the ‘ATLauncher.exe' file you downloaded in step one into it.
Step 3) Launch & Setup The ATLauncher
This is where you actually install the ATLauncher. Luckily, doing this is actually pretty easy. Just double-click on the ‘ATLauncher.exe' file, and boom! A lot of stuff will start happening. After about a minute, a little window will pop-up that says ‘ATLauncher Setup' in the menu bar. Just click the ‘Save' button in the bottom center of the pop-up window, and then, after a few seconds, the ATLauncher will open right on up. Congrats! The ATLauncher is now installed.
Step 4) Login To The ATLauncher
Logging into the ATLauncher is a bit different than other launchers on the market. In order to login, click the ‘Accounts' tab in the right-hand sidebar of the launcher. This will then open up a login screen. Here, you will enter your Minecraft email and password. This is the exact same login information that you use to login to the default Minecraft launcher and Minecraft.net. Once you have entered your email and password, click ‘Add'. This will then log you into the ATLauncher.
