What FerNode is
The app collects the routine parts of running a server: starting and stopping a server, watching CPU and memory, taking backups and installing Modrinth add-ons. The goal is not to replace a control panel or a hosting service. It is to make a server on your own PC easier to run without hiding what is happening underneath.
The plugin library is deliberately small. UltraTreeFeller, AutoRefill and FerKunG Stacker each do one job, ship with documented defaults and work as standalone JARs. You do not need the FerNode app to use them, and you can install them on any compatible Paper or Spigot server.
Who builds it
FerNode is developed by FerKunGsXD. Releases, source code and issue tracking live on the FerKunG/server-tool GitHub repository. Video demos and project updates are posted on the FerKunGsXD YouTube channel.
The app is tested on Windows 10 and 11. The plugins target Java 17+ and the Minecraft versions listed on the plugin cards. If a build does not match your server version, it is better to wait for a compatible release than to force it to load.
How the project is funded
The app and plugins are free to download. This website shows advertising through Google AdSense to cover the cost of keeping the site and downloads online. Advertising is separate from the downloads: you can use the app and plugins without creating an account, and the desktop app does not require you to visit the site.
The site does not sell personal information. The privacy policy explains what the hosting provider and Google may collect, and how to control personalised advertising.
