Databases → New Database → name it → Create Database. Then copy the endpoint, username and password into plugins like LuckPerms or CoreProtect, or into your bot.

Stop your Hytale server, upload the mod's .zip or .jar file into the mods folder with Files or SFTP, then start the server and check the console.

Run Vanilla Bedrock for the real Bedrock experience, or Nukkit/PocketMine-MP for plugins. Bedrock uses UDP, add-ons go in the world folder, and players join with address and port.

Install DiscordSRV, create a Discord bot with the Server Members and Message Content intents, then put the bot token and channel ID in DiscordSRV's config.yml and restart.

Install Dynmap or BlueMap, set its web server port to an extra port from the Network tab, and open http://your-server-address:port in a browser to see a live map.

Install EssentialsX (plus Spawn and Chat if you want them) with Vault and LuckPerms, then set spawn, warps and kits, and give players permissions for /home and /tpa.

Install Geyser and Floodgate from the Plugins tab, add a port with Create Allocation in Network, set it as Geyser's Bedrock port, and Bedrock players can join your Java server.

Plugins tab → Browse Plugins → pick a platform (Modrinth, CurseForge, Hangar or SpigotMC) → search → Install → restart. Or upload any plugin .jar to the plugins folder in Files.

Install LuckPerms from the Plugins tab, give yourself luckperms.* from the console, then create groups, add permissions and assign players with lp commands or the web editor.

Install Simple Voice Chat, add an extra port in the Network tab, and set that port in voicechat-server.properties. Every player also needs the mod on their game.

On an offline-mode server, install a login plugin such as AuthMe or LibreLogin so nobody can join as you, and SkinsRestorer so players get skins back with /skin.

ViaVersion lets newer clients join an older server, ViaBackwards lets older clients join a newer server, and ViaRewind adds 1.7 and 1.8 clients. Install them from the Plugins tab.

spark records what your server spends its time on and gives you a link to a report. Use /spark tps, /spark health and /spark profiler to find the plugin, mod or entity behind your lag.

Generating new land is one of the heaviest jobs a server does. Use Chunky to generate the world ahead of time, then add a world border so players never trigger it during play.
