Getting started

1. Use this repository as a template to create your own and then clone it:
   git clone https://github.com/Silthus/minecraft-server-template.git
2. Execute the init.sh script:
   The script asks you a couple of questions initializing your minecraft network.
   It will also generate a couple of *.secrets.env files that must never be commited!
3. Start the network with ./dc.sh up -d
