arm64-mcpelauncher-server

An unstable hacky Minecraft Bedrock Edition server that runs on arm64 devices (e.g. Raspberry Pi)

NOTE: This branch is for Minecraft v1.21.2 (latest version), for Minecraft v1.20.81, click here.

This launcher supports only Minecraft v1.21.2 (switch to another branch for v1.20.81), and the configuration files might not actually work :( but still better than QEMU bc QEMU is slow af :/

The image above shows a Minecraft server running on Raspberry Pi 4 device smoothly (Only terminal window ssh'd to raspi, the Minecraft window is on my x86_64 machine)

This project is based on mcpelauncher project.
Some ideas of the class structures came from LeviLamina.

mkdir -p build
cd build
