Words to know
- Project: one plugin, with its chat, its files and its versions.
- Chat: where you describe your idea and ask for changes.
- Credit: what pays for Minax’s work.
- Test server: a real Minecraft server started for you for a few minutes, with your plugin already installed.
- .jar: your plugin’s file, to put in your server’s
pluginsfolder.
What Minax does not do yet
- Mods (Fabric, Forge) and anything installed in the players’ own game.
- Minecraft Bedrock.
- Proxy plugins (Velocity, BungeeCord).
- Hosting a permanent server: the test server is for trying things, a few minutes at a time.
- Taking the code of an existing plugin (.jar, .zip, GitHub) to change it.
