## Goals
2018-08-27 11:42:01 +08:00
* A codebase that is easy to dive into and consistently follows best practices
for Java projects as much as reasonably possible.
2018-07-25 08:17:56 +08:00
* High performance: handle thousands of players on one proxy.
2018-08-27 11:42:01 +08:00
* A new, refreshing API built from the ground up to be flexible and powerful
whilst avoiding design mistakes and suboptimal designs from other proxies.
2018-07-27 02:02:13 +08:00
* First-class support for Paper, Sponge, and Forge. (Other implementations
may work, but we make every endeavor to support these server implementations
specifically.)

## Building
Velocity is built with [Gradle](https://gradle.org). We recommend using the
wrapper script (`./gradlew`) as our CI builds using it.
It is sufficient to run `./gradlew build` to run the full build cycle.

## Running
Once you've built Velocity, you can copy and run the `-all` JAR from
`proxy/build/libs`. Velocity will generate a default configuration file
and you can configure it from there.

Alternatively, you can get the proxy JAR from the [downloads](https://papermc.io/downloads#Velocity)
