Tools for running a Minecraft Java server: download any version straight from Mojang, generate the start script for Windows, Linux or systemd, and build coloured chat and MOTDs you can see before you restart anything.

Server setup

Minecraft Server Download: Vanilla, Paper, Purpur, Folia, Fabric, Forge, NeoForgeEvery version of every server, from the projects themselves. Vanilla back to 1.2.5 with snapshots, every Paper, Purpur and Folia build, Fabric for any game version, and Forge and NeoForge across the Minecraft releases they support, each with the Java version it needs.Minecraft Server Start Script GeneratorThe launch script for a Minecraft server on Windows, Linux or systemd: memory, JVM flags, auto restart and the eula file, for vanilla, Paper, Purpur, Fabric or Forge alike.

Text and chat

Minecraft Color Code GeneratorWrite a coloured chat message, MOTD or /tellraw command and watch it render in the game's own font, colours and shadow, obfuscated text included. Copy it out in the form the file you are pasting into actually expects.Minecraft Written Book GeneratorWrite a multi-page book with colours and styles, and get the /give command for it, in the right syntax for your version: item components on 1.21.5, on 1.20.5, or the old NBT tag before that.Minecraft Skin Downloader and 3D ViewerLook a player up by username or UUID, turn their skin on the real player model, and download the texture as a PNG. Classic and slim arms are both drawn the way the game draws them.

Reference lists

Minecraft Color Codes and Formatting CodesEvery colour and style code Minecraft accepts, each one shown in the game's own font with its effect applied: the chat code, the MOTD escape, the plugin code, the name /tellraw wants, and the hex, RGB and shadow the game actually draws.
