MinecraftChat

This is a very lightweight application... ~500kb without modules. It is built on Node and utilizes tools such as mineflayer, node-minecraft-protocol and socket.io. The whole purpose is that you can chat on Minecraft servers from your browser. This makes it easier to just jump in, say a few things, and leave without having to wait for your game to load.

Installing on your own server

git clone https://github.com/Kuchenm0nster/MinecraftChat
cd MinecraftChat
npm install && grunt build
npm start

This will start the application on port 3000 or the one specified by the PORT environment variable. Alternatively copy the .env.dist to .env and edit the port.
