How to Install Mods on your Minecraft Server
Mods open up a world of possibilities for your Minecraft server. You can introduce entirely new gameplay mechanics, quests, items, creatures, and environments to expand your world. You can enhance the visual experience with graphical overhauls, realistic textures, and dynamic lighting improvements. On the server side, mods can improve performance by optimizing resource usage.
The sheer number of mods available (well over 200,000) is a testament to the boundless creativity and dedication of the Minecraft community. Whatever type of experience you're looking to create, there's likely a mod perfectly suited for it.
