Dockercraft: Manage Docker containers from Minecraft

If I was microsoft, I would overhaul minecraft mods and make it possible to write them in c# (maybe with a bridge or something). Get kids into your stack and fix an existing pain point.

Were I Microsoft, I'd immediately containerize a Minecraft server.

It has been done multiple times, by several people. Just run a search on GitHub :)

Usually you would install java, download the latest server jar and just start it. I was working on a set of scripts to launch multiple containers on the same host and keep track of the ports exposed, but I've only spent a couple of hours on it and jumped to something else https://github.com/pjperez/Multicraft

I've also added a poor man's queue system using Azure Storage :)

Forgive my poor coding; I'm not a developer and only do these things as a hobby.

Were I Microsoft, I wouldn't know how to find my back side.

I started writing a "bridge" inspired by a lost project that allowed writing mods in C#.

Pull requests welcome, but I'm unlikely to go back to it any time soon.
