How to Install Cardboard on Your Minecraft Server

Cardboard is a Fabric mod that allows you to run Spigot/Paper plugins alongside mods.

Not all Fabric mods and Spigot/Paper plugins will be compatible with each other, you should make sure you backup your server before installing new mods or plugins.

Important: Cardboard is still in development and is likely to have bugs, we highly recommend you regularly backup your server while using mods like Cardboard.
