| Spec score · Minecraft Server Proxy Software | 7.6 (#9) | 7.5 (#11) |
| Deployment | To connect, both the server and proxy must run; the proxy listens on port 25565 and connects to the server on port 8483. | The project provides a deployable Endlink.jar that runs with Java and says building requires JDK 21 or newer. |
| License | The GitHub repository lists an MIT license. | Endlink is licensed under Apache License 2.0, which the README says permits commercial use, forking, and distribution subject to keeping notices and stating changes. |
| Purpose | Bamboo is described as a safe, fast Minecraft server optimized for minigames. | Endlink is a Velocity-style proxy for Minecraft Bedrock that keeps players connected while they switch between backend servers. |
| Security | The project describes Bamboo as safe and secure but does not specify security controls or certifications in the README. | EndlinkGuard verifies backend joins through an HMAC-signed handshake and rejects joins that did not come through the proxy. |
| Version support | The README says clients can join on Minecraft versions 1.8, 1.12, and 1.14 or later. | The README says to run the current Minecraft release on both ends and describes older-version translation beyond the short backend update gap as unstable and incomplete. |
