Grakkit

It's the fusion of GraalVM, JavaScript, and Minecraft.

Grakkit is a utility plugin which enables JavaScript plugin development.

Get Grakkit

1. Click the download link above, which will either be a direct-download or take you to the latest GitHub release page. Download the latest release (typically following the scheme "grakkit-x.y.z.paper").

2. Upon first server start, a "grakkit" folder will generate in the "plugins" directory, its contents being a singular "index.js" file. Your server is officially JavaScript-ready :)

3. Optionally install NodeJS to take advantage of Grakkit for all it's worth, it really makes things easier. You can still use libraries such as @grakkit/stdlib-paper, however installing and updating is a lot more tedious when done manually. *Just get Node if you can, but if your server host doesn't permit server console-access, Node / NPM can be installed locally and files can be transferred over.. yeah it kinda sucks :/

Note: While we primarily use the naming convention "paper" for things, Grakkit implements the Spigot API, not Paper. Fun fact — Grakkit is compatible with any version of Minecraft the Bukkit API implements!

Java Developers!
Because of the prototyping nature of JavaScript, Grakkit is useful to traditional Java developers, too. Navigating new APIs, importing jarfiles, reflecting Java types, and more is all accessible in-game with a fully-featured JavaScript parser/interpreter, complete with runtime tab-completion! It's like a browser console, but in Minecraft!
