Hello everyone, today marks the first release of SSH Craft. We’ve had some insider testing, and so far so good. Now’s the time where you get to try it out for yourself!
We’re looking forward to all your feedback, so install it, tell us what you think about it, and provide some requests and suggestions. We’ve also decided to start up a small forum so users can participate in the growth and development of SSH Craft. That will come in a later announcement, so check back regularly.
We’ve also posted a changelog so you can get a glimpse into some of the features that’re in SSH Craft.
For documentation and how to install, you can visit the docs section by clicking here.

About SSH Craft
SSH Craft was made by Lawrence Wright when he realized administering over several dozen servers was enough work for one guy to handle. They say that you can replace an IT professional with a bash script. Well, that’s just what Lawrence did.
Minecraft is a trademark of Notch Development AB.
Okay, so nothing impressive, but the website is up. We’re just staking our territory on the internet, so keep an eye out for SSH Craft when it’s launched!
Not sure what SSH Craft is? When done, it will be a fully functional SSH based GUI for Minecraft. The program will save countless hours of server administration, and for $14.95 (The determined price), it’s well worth it. The program has planned features such as starting, stopping, and restarting a server; installing, uninstalling, and reinstalling Minecraft, and various other features we don’t want to go too deep into this early on.
Check back often, development is in progress and you never know when we’ll make an announcement! As of this post, our userbase is a big fat “0”, so be among the first followers of SSH Craft and tell a friend!
Update!
We’ve decided to make SSH Craft free, and open source. In addition, we’re writing SSH Craft entirely in Bash. We’ll have additional news later.
