========

MCServer is a Minecraft server that is written in C++ and designed to be efficient with memory and CPU, as well as having a flexible Lua Plugin API.

MCServer can run on Windows, *nix and Android operating systems. This includes Android phones and tablets as well as Raspberry Pis. 

We currently support Release 1.7 and 1.8 (not beta) Minecraft protocol versions.

Installation
------------

Normally, you will want to download a pre-compiled version of MCServer from the official buildserver: http://builds.cuberite.org

You simply need to download and extract these files before you can use the server. 

If you're a more advanced user, you may want to compile the server yourself for more performance. See the [COMPILING.md](https://github.com/mc-server/MCServer/blob/master/COMPILING.md) file for more details.
