Lectern is a lightweight client-side Minecraft mod that bridges Paper servers and vanilla clients, enabling real-time UI, interactions, and player controls for live events and community servers — without requiring any server-side mod installation.
Supports 1.20.x–1.21.x
Lectern (the Mod) listens for custom data packets sent from Lectern (our Paper Plugin) and responds client-side. Allowing you to execute actions such as rendering UI, handling interactions, and managing player controls in real time.
All logic and visuals remain client-sided, keeping the server fully vanilla-compatible.
Use cases include:
• Heavy moderation on what mods or packs a player uses
• Hosting large-scale community events
• Game shows and roleplay scenarios
• Real-time player moderation tools
• Interactive storytelling experiences
Note:Lectern requires our compatible server plugin to send packets. Lectern from Modrinth is a client-only mod.
You can purchase the Lectern Plugin for $49.99
Lectern also offers an extensive API that allows other developers to integrate Lectern into their plugin. For more information on how to use our API, read our Documentation.
