Get started
Install the desktop app and connect one bot to a Minecraft test server.
Start with the desktop app and Integrated server (local). The app starts a local SoulFire backend, so you do not need Docker or a separate Java installation.
1. Install the app
Windows
Install the Windows desktop app.
macOS
Install the macOS desktop app.
Linux
Install the Linux desktop app with Flatpak.
2. Connect one bot
Follow Connect your first bot.
Keep a Minecraft test server ready. The tutorial uses an offline-mode Java server at 127.0.0.1:25565.
For an online-mode server, use a Microsoft account instead.
Success means that the bot joins, sends a visible message, and disconnects after you stop it.
3. Choose your next task
- Test your server with a repeatable run.
- Build a visual script without writing code.
- Use the SDK from TypeScript or Python.
