Plugins

Plugins run on the server only, and players join with an unmodified client. They target a server API rather than the game, which is why one plugin often covers many Minecraft versions at once.

About Minecraft plugins

What is a Minecraft plugin?

A plugin runs on the server and nowhere else. Players join with an ordinary Minecraft client and never install anything, which is why plugins are the usual choice for a public server.

How do I find plugins that work on my Minecraft version?

Use the Minecraft version filter at the top of the page, and the loader filter beside it. Everything listed under a version declares support for it, so you get the list that will actually load rather than everything that happens to mention the version somewhere in its description.

Where do the downloads come from?

Every plugin links to its author's own release. MCReference is a reference to what exists and where the official download is; nothing here is mirrored, re-hosted or repackaged.

Which server software do plugins run on?

Plugins run on server software such as Paper, Spigot, Bukkit and Folia. They install on the server only, so players join with an ordinary client and never download anything. Filter by the software your server runs.
