running local minecraft servers is annoying!

nobody likes paying for cloud hosting, so i spent the past 8 days programming a local cli for creating and managing minecraft servers because using .jar files directly is overcomplicated. i decided to make the core an open source and reusable Go library and i am planning to port it to C in the future.

i just finished the first stable version of mcserverkit’s core and cli and wrote a shell script for macos and linux users to easily install the cli. as for windows, i haven’t yet but i have included steps to easily add the executable to PATH.

what’s next?

i am working on a GUI app using C and webview, i plan on adding port forwarding so you can run it on your computer locally and share them with your friends!
