Installing plugins

In this guide, I mostly document the manual way of installing plugins: uploading the plugins .jar file to your server's plugins folder.

If you're using a hosting provider, your game panel should provide a way to easily install plugins. Instead of directly adding the jar file to your server, you are welcome to install the plugin through a Plugins tab if you would rather.

Plugin repositories

The two places I'd recommend installing plugins from are:

• Modrinth - for most plugins
• Paper Hangar - for paper-specific plugins

You can also find plugins at SpigotMC, however try to find the plugin on Modrinth or Hangar first.
