Introduction
QSM (Quick Server Manager) is a server management software for the game Minecraft. Currently, It is a Windows-only program, but after the Windows version is stable, QSM for Linux will definitely follow.
QSM does not support hosting a Bedrock Edition Minecraft server. But you still can host a Java server with a plugin which will make Bedrock edition players can join.
Even if QSM eases the process of self-hosting a Minecraft server, it is still recommended that you understand some basics of hosting a game server.
The Minecraft Wiki states the following (source):
In order to run your server and stay out of trouble, we highly suggest that you should at least know about the following:
- Using the command-line and editing configuration files
- Networking in general (IP, DHCP, ports, etc.)
- Your system configuration
- Your network configuration
- Your router configuration (if you want other people to connect over the Internet)
(Planned) QSM features are of the following:
- Basic server controls & Configurations
- Java installation management
- Backups Management
- Mods/Plugins management
The documentation will include documentation for features that are not implemented yet, is being implemented, and is completed.
