With the introduction of paper plugins, paper decided to drop support for the ConfigurationSerializable interface.
While this interface and the system behind it provided a usable way to de/serialise an object fairly easily, it wasn't ideal by any means.
It was hard to learn and required a lot of boilerplate code to simply de/serialise an object.
So we're going to say goodbye to it. It won't be missed.
This blog post is about logging and writing information to the console in Minecraft. There are a lot of ways to write data to the Minecraft console. And there are a lot of bad or wrong ways to write to the Minecraft console. We'll start by looking at some bad practices, then move on to the built-in plugin logger, and finish with a look at slf4j.
Welcome to another blog post! This time we will look at how to redirect to an external url using traefik without using a container. Docker is completely optional, but I run my traefik with docker, so I will refer to that as well. This should also work with others, but I have not tested or done so yet.
This blog post is about developing Minecraft plugins for Paper and Spigot servers using Gradle. The Minecraft community has built a huge ecosystem for Minecraft around the Gradle build tool. Instead of throwing a sample Gradle file at you, we will go through this step by step. We will start with the basic Gradle layout, set up repositories and dependencies, and move on to plugins.

it comes to naming.
In this post I try to explain my point of view, and also show my approach on naming them.
