BlueMap
A Minecraft mapping tool that creates 3D models of your Minecraft
BlueMap is a program that reads your Minecraft world files and generates not only a map, but also 3D models of the whole surface. With the web app you then can look at those in your browser and basically view the world as if you were ingame! Or just look at it from far away to get an overview. BlueMap comes as a Spigot/Paper or Sponge Plugin, as a Fabric or Forge-Mod and you can also use BlueMap without any Server from the Command-Line as a standalone tool. If installed as a Plugin/Mod, BlueMap renders asynchronously to your MinecraftServer-Thread. This means at no time it will block your server thread directly. So as long as your CPU is not fully utilized, your server should not be slowed down while BlueMap is rendering. -

WorldEdit
Minecraft map editor and mod
WorldEdit is a powerful open-source Minecraft map editing toolkit that allows players, builders, and server administrators to quickly modify large areas of a Minecraft world directly from within the game. Instead of placing or removing blocks individually, WorldEdit provides commands and tools that enable users to select regions of the world and apply transformations to thousands or even millions of blocks at once. This capability makes it extremely useful for constructing large builds, terraforming terrain, repairing damage, or managing multiplayer server worlds efficiently. The tool includes a variety of editing methods such as brushes, shape generation commands, and clipboard operations that allow copying, pasting, and rotating entire structures. WorldEdit can run in both single-player environments and multiplayer servers and is compatible with several modding platforms and server frameworks used in Minecraft Java Edition. -

MCreator
Make Minecraft Java Edition mods, Minecraft Bedrock Edition Add-Ons
MCreator is an open-source integrated development environment designed to simplify the process of creating Minecraft mods, add-ons, resource packs, and data packs. The software provides a visual programming environment where users can design mod features using graphical tools instead of writing code manually. Through wizards, block-based programming interfaces, and an integrated editor, MCreator generates the underlying Java or JSON code required for the mod automatically. This approach allows beginners and students to experiment with mod development without needing extensive programming experience. At the same time, advanced users can extend the tool through plugins or directly modify the generated code for more complex projects. MCreator is widely used in educational settings, modding communities, and programming workshops as a gateway into game development. -

ViaVersion
Allows the connection of newer clients to older server versions
Allows the connection of higher client versions to lower server versions - it works on any platform you can think of. The base ViaVersion jar runs on Paper and Velocity. We also have projects integrating ViaVersion to run on Fabric, Forge, Bungee, Sponge, or as a standalone proxy to join from basically any client version on any server version from the past decade. See HERE for an overview of the different Via* projects. Note that ViaVersion will be able to run best on either Paper servers or through ViaFabricPlus due to having direct access to client/server state and more extensive API. -

BedrockConnect
Join any Minecraft Bedrock Edition server IP on Xbox One
On Minecraft Bedrock Edition, players on Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PS4/PS5 are limited to playing on 'Featured Servers' approved by Mojang/Microsoft. These players are not able to join servers via an IP/address. This is an issue for me and others, as the server community on Java edition was one of the major parts that made Minecraft what it was, and what also made the servers that are now considered 'Mojang Server Partners' what they are today. I wanted to fix this, so I made a solution that anyone can set up easily. -

GeyserMC
A bridge/proxy allowing you to connect to Minecraft
Geyser is an open-source proxy and protocol translation tool that enables cross-platform multiplayer between Minecraft: Java Edition servers and Minecraft: Bedrock Edition clients. The project works by translating network packets between the two different game protocols so that players using Bedrock Edition devices such as consoles, mobile phones, or Windows editions can connect to servers originally designed for Java Edition. By bridging the differences between the two platforms, Geyser allows server communities to unify players who would otherwise be separated by incompatible game editions. The software typically runs as a plugin, proxy, or standalone bridge and integrates with popular Java server platforms such as Spigot, Paper, or Velocity. -

Skript
Skript is a Bukkit plugin which allows server admins
Skript is (surprise, surprise) a scripting plugin for the Bukkit platform. It is easy to use for simple tasks, but you can also create really complex things with it. The syntax of Skript is close to English, but it is still not magic. While you might succeed with experimentation for simple tasks, for anything more complex you will need some guidance. You will find all supported features of the plugin here, along with some useful examples. We don't have tutorials yet, but you can find good ones using whatever search engine you prefer. Skript requires Spigot to work. You heard it right, CraftBukkit does not work. Paper, which is a fork of Spigot, is recommended; it is required for some parts of Skript to be available. Skript supports only the latest patch versions of Minecraft 1.9+. For example, this means that 1.16.5 is supported, but 1.16.4 is not. Testing with all old patch versions is not feasible for us. -

CatServer
A high performance and high compatibility 1.12.2/1.16.5/1.18.2 version
CatServer is an open-source hybrid Minecraft server implementation that combines support for both Forge mods and Bukkit-style plugins within the same server environment. Traditional Minecraft server software typically supports either mod loaders such as Forge or plugin systems like Bukkit and Spigot, but CatServer aims to bridge this gap by enabling both ecosystems to coexist. This hybrid approach allows administrators to run modded gameplay features while also using administrative plugins designed for plugin-based servers. The project modifies the server architecture to integrate Forge modding capabilities alongside plugin compatibility layers. As a result, server operators can build more complex environments that include both gameplay modifications and server management tools. CatServer is particularly useful for communities that want the flexibility of modded Minecraft while retaining access to established plugin-based server administration tools. -

minecraft-world-downloader
Download Minecraft worlds, extend server's render distance. 1.12.2
A Minecraft world downloader that works as a proxy server between the client and the server to read & save chunk data. Download multiplayer worlds by connecting to them and walking around. Chunks can be sent back to the client to extend the render distance. -
21
GrimAC
Fully async, multithreaded, predictive, open source, 3.01 reach
GrimAC is an open-source anticheat system designed to detect and prevent cheating on Minecraft multiplayer servers through predictive simulation and advanced movement analysis. The project uses a simulation-based detection engine that recreates player movement and physics in order to identify discrepancies between legitimate gameplay and modified client behavior. By analyzing how players move, interact with the world, and send network packets to the server, Grim can detect a variety of cheats such as reach hacks, speed hacks, and anti-knockback modifications. The software is designed to operate asynchronously and with multithreaded processing, allowing servers to maintain high performance even when monitoring large numbers of players simultaneously. Grim supports a wide range of Minecraft versions and can integrate with server platforms used in competitive or large multiplayer environments. -

Iris
A modern shaders mod for Minecraft compatible with existing OptiFine
Iris was created to fill a void that I saw in the Minecraft customization and graphical enhancement community: the lack of an open-source shaders mod that would let me load my favorite shader packs on modern versions of the game, while retaining performance and compatibility with modpacks. OptiFine, the current dominant mod for loading shader packs, has restrictive licensing that firmly stands in the way of any sort of tinkering, and is fairly notorious for having compatibility issues with the mods that I like. It's also mutually incompatible with Sodium, the best rendering optimization mod in existence by a large margin. ShadersMod was never updated past 1.12, and it lacks support for many of the many modern popular shaderpacks. So I created Iris, to try and solve these issues, and also address many other longstanding issues with shader packs. I first and foremost develop Iris to meet my own needs of a performance-oriented shaders mod with good compatibility. -
23
Purpur
Purpur is a drop-in replacement for Paper servers
Purpur is an open-source Minecraft server software built as a fork of the Paper server platform, designed to provide extensive configurability and gameplay customization for server administrators. It functions as a drop-in replacement for Paper, meaning existing servers can switch to Purpur without major changes while gaining access to additional features and configuration options. The project focuses on allowing administrators to modify gameplay mechanics, behaviors, and rules that are normally fixed in standard server implementations. Through a wide set of configuration settings, server operators can adjust how mobs behave, alter game mechanics, or enable experimental gameplay features that are not present in vanilla Minecraft. Purpur inherits performance improvements and plugin compatibility from the Paper ecosystem while adding its own enhancements and customization capabilities. -

Minestom
1.21.11 Lightweight Minecraft server
Minestom is an open-source Minecraft server development framework that allows developers to build custom Minecraft server software from scratch without relying on Mojang’s original server code. Instead of functioning as a traditional server implementation, Minestom acts as a lightweight library that provides the core networking and gameplay infrastructure needed to create Minecraft server applications. Developers can use it to design custom game modes, experimental server architectures, or entirely new gameplay systems while maintaining compatibility with the Minecraft Java Edition client. The framework focuses on performance, modularity, and extensibility, allowing developers to include only the features required for their specific server projects. Because Minestom is designed with a minimal base architecture, it enables high performance and easier scalability for custom server environments.
