Everything you need to get online.

The website is delivered from Cloudflare. The Windows helper runs on the host computer. The Minecraft Java process and its files remain on that computer. When the helper is online, the browser can manage it through the local API.

1. Download PixelServersSetup.exe from the Download page.
2. Open it on the computer that will host the world.
3. Allow Node.js and Java through Windows Firewall on Private networks when Windows asks.
4. Return to PixelServers and open Dashboard.
5. Create a server, wait for installation, then press Start.

The helper downloads runtimes and server software as needed. Keep the computer awake while the server is running.

Public connections use Playit.gg, so players do not need your home IP address and you do not need to configure router port forwarding.

• Browser prompt: choose Allow if your browser asks to find devices on the local network.
• Windows Firewall: allow Java on Private networks when Windows asks.
• Playit agent: keep it running while players are online.

Install and claim the Playit agent, then create a Minecraft Java tunnel targeting127.0.0.1 and the port shown in the server panel. Playit gives you the public hostname and port players use in Minecraft.

Paste the generated Playit address into the server panel so it is easy to copy and share. Keep both the PixelServers helper and Playit agent running.

• Keep 127.0.0.1:41815 private.
• Use online-mode=true unless you understand the security implications.
• Keep Java, Minecraft, loaders, mods, and plugins updated.
• Back up worlds independently.
• Never install untrusted JAR files or give strangers remote access to your PC.
