Devlog #1

Every existing Minecraft server panel I’ve tried is either massively overengineered or just unpleasant to use. Pterodactyl and Pelican are built for hosting companies to manage hundreds of servers, its way too overengineered for a home server. Crafty Controller is supposed to be simpler but I find it cluttered and hard to navigate.

I’m building something where you open the browser, pick a version, set a name, and have a server running in under a minute. An easy setup process, all configuration done through the Web UI, nothing complicated while still giving users full access to their server settings and files. Flask backend managing server processes, HTML/CSS/JS frontend.

The planning is complete. First milestone is getting a server launching and streaming console output to the browser in real time.
