About this project

Purpur is a drop-in replacement for Paper Minecraft servers, designed for enhanced configurability, new gameplay features, and performance. Built on top of Paper, it serves as a high-performance server implementation. For developers, Purpur includes the complete API provided by Paper, Spigot, and Bukkit, facilitating seamless plugin development. The project provides Maven and Gradle dependency configurations for integrating the Purpur API. Users can obtain downloads via the official website or a dedicated downloads API, which allows listing available Minecraft versions and fetching specific or latest builds. The source code is open-source, with patches licensed under the MIT license. Building the project from source requires cloning the repository and using Gradle commands such as `applyAllPatches` and `createPaperclipJar`.
