Everything you need to play on or host a Beacon server. Every platform, no account, and nothing behind a private repo. Builds are served straight from the public registry.
Beacon Launcher
The desktop app: sign in with Microsoft and join any Beacon server in one click. It installs the right client, mods, loader, and Java for you.
macOS and Windows are code-signed; Linux ships as an unsigned alpha build. The Microsoft Store build and the AppImage self-update; the .deb updates by re-downloading. Release notes and past versions live in the changelog.
Beacon CLI
Run your own server. The CLI deploys and manages a beacon with Docker: one command to install, one to launch.
Pick the host you are installing on. The page selects a likely OS automatically; the commands below update when you choose another one.
