What are Minecraft plugins?

Plugins are extensions for Minecraft servers that add new features without players having to install anything. Unlike mods, plugins run only on the server: players join with a regular, unmodified Minecraft Java Edition client.

For hand-written plugin descriptions with installation instructions, see our plugin guide in the wiki. If you're setting up a server from scratch, read the server setup guide.
