Spigot

Spigot is a modified Minecraft server software based on CraftBukkit. It is designed to offer significant performance improvements and customization options compared to the vanilla Minecraft server. While it builds upon CraftBukkit's API, Spigot incorporates many performance enhancements, bug fixes, and configuration options to provide a more stable and efficient server experience. It is often used for large multiplayer servers.

• Performance: Spigot is known for its performance enhancements, allowing servers to handle more players and complex operations with less lag. This is achieved through various optimizations and improved algorithms. See more about Performance.
• Customization: Spigot supports plugins written for the Bukkit API, enabling extensive server customization. Plugins can add new features, modify existing game mechanics, and enhance the overall player experience. More on Customization.
• Configuration: Spigot servers have a large number of configurable options within the spigot.yml file, allowing server administrators to fine-tune server behavior. This includes options for entity tracking ranges, chunk loading distances, and more. More about Configuration.
• API: While building on the Bukkit API, Spigot also has its own API extensions for more advanced customization. This allows plugin developers access to additional functionality. See about the API.
