Show HN: CraftBox, Run a Minecraft Server on Your Phone

11 pointsby 4y agoplay.google.com

I want to share my newest Android app with everyone on HN. CraftBox allows you to easily run a Minecraft server on your Android device. It is published in the Play Store, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tech.ula.craft... , and posted on GitHub: https://github.com/CypherpunkArmory/CraftBox

I know I am late to the Minecraft scene. I am a bit old to have been part of the original craze, but I now have a son who loves the game. Now that I have played it with him, I can see the appeal.

I am an open source developer and the creator of UserLAnd, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tech.ula, so when I get excited about something, I am always thinking about how I can get involved and contribute to the community. I read an article on how to run a Minecraft Server on your phone, https://www.xda-developers.com/run-minecraft-server-android/ , but I figured I could do better by not making people go through as many steps. So, that is a goal... make this simple.

This is the first public release and there are many things that can be improved. You can see some of the issues I am going to be fixing soon in the GitHub issues.

Anyway, please check it out and tell me what you think.

Thanks! Corbin

This looks pretty cool and totally worked for me. Please update the Github page to include build instructions for anyone who wants to contribute. I see you have plans for Forge and Pocket Edition support so I am excited to see this progress.

Agreed. I will make sure others can build this. It is built on top of UserLAnd, but the build process does have a couple of extra steps.

Nice work! I informed the author of the XDA article about it, though I'm not sure he'll be able to update the piece.
