Run game servers and bots on your own infrastructure. Install Minecraft content, build custom modpacks and deploy applications from source, all from one panel.
Your infrastructure. Your servers. Your panel.
Built to be self-hosted, extensible and yours to control.
Why HivePanel
Manage the everyday details of hosting, then extend the panel with reusable Combs, application recipes, Nectar extensions and administrator-defined themes.
15 features
Follow console output, control power and monitor CPU, memory, disk and network usage from your Cell.
Browse, edit, upload and transfer files. Game-aware configuration pages follow the Cell’s Comb.
Manage Cells across physical servers and VMs, with Worker connectivity, node settings and resource limits.
Browse JARs, mods, plugins and modpacks through HiveRegistry, with version and loader selection.
Select a Minecraft version and loader, resolve required dependencies, save packs and export for Modrinth or CurseForge.
Offer applications such as Discord Tickets with Git checkout, dependency installation and file operations.
Update Comb variables after installation, choose an administrator-offered runtime image and retain values during reinstall.
Assign primary and additional allocations, add allocation notes and manage Cell databases through configured hosts.
Create and restore backups, and automate console commands, power actions and recurring maintenance.
Import server files and use supported migration workflows to bring existing servers into HivePanel.
Add full panel pages, sidebar entries and interface slots, with declared permissions reviewed by administrators.
Admins define themes with design tokens; users choose offered themes. Language files support English and partial German.
Manage users, roles, scoped Cell access and activity records, with two-factor authentication options.
Manage update workflows from the admin area and follow their progress and reported status.
Panel, Worker and Registry are MIT-licensed. Run the stack on your own infrastructure and adapt it to your needs.
Install more. Configure less.
Choose what your Cell runs, review the installation and follow its progress in a dedicated view.
Browse Modrinth and CurseForge content through HiveRegistry. Choose compatible game versions and loaders, install mods or plugins, or deploy a published modpack.
Admins offer trusted recipes in a Comb or HiveRegistry. Git checkout, downloads, file operations and dependency commands prepare the application before its files replace the Cell.
Extend your hive
An optional resource catalogue for Combs, Minecraft versions and installation assets. Use the public service or host your own Registry.
Provider keys stay in Registry. Cached assets and a central API serve supported catalogue and installer workflows.
Add full pages that share the panel layout, place links within sidebar groups and extend existing screens through interface slots.
Administrators review declared permissions, including network access, before enabling extensions.
Admins create themes from design tokens and choose which ones users can select. Users also control light, dark or system appearance.
Language files provide an English fallback and a partial German catalogue. Translation coverage is growing.

Meet the hive
Panel is the central control plane. Nodes provide the machines that run your servers and bots, while Worker connects each Node back to Panel and manages the Cells running on it.
Panel
The central interface for managing users, infrastructure, Combs and Cells.
Node
A physical machine or VM providing compute capacity to HivePanel.
Worker
Runs on each Node and carries out instructions sent by Panel.
HiveRegistry Optional
Publishes Combs, catalogue metadata and installation assets. Core Cell management can use locally managed Combs.
Cell
A game server or application instance created and managed by HivePanel.

Combs
Combs define how a game server or application is installed and started. They bring together runtime images, editable variables, shutdown behavior and installation instructions, and can offer their own preinstall recipes.
Comb Library
Available definitions
Community and custom Combs can extend HivePanel further
From definition to running server
Comb
Defines the runtime and installation recipe
Worker
Installs and starts the instance on a Node
Cell
Your server or application
Less busywork
Common operations shouldn't require ten different screens, SSH sessions and handwritten notes.
Select the server definition you want to deploy.
Choose a Node, assign resources and configure the Cell's variables.
Worker prepares the Cell, runs the installation instructions and reports progress before you start it.
Your Cell is ready to control through HivePanel.
Open source
HivePanel, HivePanel Worker and HiveRegistry are MIT-licensed projects. Inspect the code, contribute improvements, adapt the software and run it on infrastructure you control.
