Installing a modpack generally does not differ from mods installation. It all depends on the source of the modpack.

CurseForge

1. Download and install CurseForge app
   tip

   We recommend using the "Standalone" app, not "Overwolf" one

2. Select "Minecraft" game

   CurseForge app allows one to create own modpacks. One can do it using "Create Custom Profile" option. This manual does not cover this use case
