Minecraft hosting
A family Minecraft server
a safe, private world for the kids and you.
Kids play on tablets and consoles, parents on a laptop, cousins somewhere else entirely. A family server keeps them in one private world. Whitelist the accounts you know, run Geyser so Bedrock and Java players share the map, and take a backup before anyone finds TNT.

Keeping it private
Three settings cover most of it.
- Whitelist on; add each child's Minecraft username.
- online-mode on (the default), so only real Minecraft accounts can join.
- Keep the address inside the family; the panel's player list shows anyone who joins.
Phones, consoles and PCs together
Bedrock Edition (phones, Switch, Xbox, PlayStation, Windows 10/11) and Java Edition (PC) cannot join each other's servers on their own. Run a Java server and add Geyser plus Floodgate: Bedrock players join through port 19132, Java players through the normal port, and everyone sees the same world.
