Platform availability
Available on 2 of 9 platforms
Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

First-install notes
- Point the client at your server IP Before starting a client, set the server IP address in the connection settings. If it is wrong, the client will look for the wrong machine and never join. source
- Start host when you want server plus client Use the host option when you want one machine to run both the server and a player. It avoids forgetting to start one half and lets you test locally. source
- Docker deployment Run the lissy93/networking-toolbox Docker image and publish port 3000, or use the provided docker-compose.yml. source
