Deploying Lightweight Fabric Minecraft Servers // NodeFlux Docs

Configure a Fabric Java server with performance-boosting mods like Lithium, FerriteCore, and Krypton. ## Steps 1. Choose Minecraft Java Edition plan and select Fabric as your server runtime in the software selector. 2. Start the server once to generate the fabric-server-launch.jar and mods directory, then stop the server. 3. Download matching versions of essential performance mods: Lithium (physics optimization), FerriteCore (memory reduction), and Krypton (network optimization). 4. Upload the mod .jar files into the server mods/ directory via SFTP or File Manager. 5. Verify that Fabric API (fabric-api.jar) is included if any of your mods require it as a dependency. 6. Start the server and inspect the console logs to ensure all Fabric mods load without version mismatch errors. ## Notes - Fabric servers generally consume less idle memory than Forge, making them ideal for starter free RAM tiers. - Server-side Fabric mods do not require players to modify their vanilla Minecraft client.
