Pumpkin

Minecraft server written in Rust for fast, efficient, self-hosted Java/Bedrock servers.

PlatformWebfree

Pumpkin is a Minecraft server implementation written entirely in Rust, built for performance and efficiency while sticking to vanilla game mechanics. It supports the current Java protocol with Bedrock support in progress, and is laying the groundwork for a plugin ecosystem. It's aimed at self-hosters who want a faster, lighter alternative for running their own Minecraft server, though it's still under heavy active development.
