How to install

To get started with MCpp, you will need to have the following prerequisites installed:

  • CMake
  • Git

Option A: Quick start with npx

Run the following command to quickly set up the server (if an npm package were available):

npx -y @package/name

Clone the MCpp repository and build it from source:

git clone https://github.com/Zetaeta/MCpp-Server.git
cd MCpp-Server

Additional notes

When configuring MCpp, pay attention to the server settings found in the config.json file. You can adjust parameters such as port number and maximum player count to fit your needs. Additionally, ensure that your firewall settings allow traffic on the specified port to avoid connectivity issues. Common gotchas include forgetting to set the appropriate permissions for the server executable, which can prevent it from running correctly.
