Daybloom Game-Based Servers

The original Daybloom - Allowing anyone to create their own Minecraft server, without expertise.

Background

This project was created due to my absolutely love of servers, and feeling though I could do better when friends mentioned alternatives such as Aternos or Server.pro. The system was my first relatively large project, and was written in Java, a language that at the time I was freshly learning. This resulted in a project without perfect quality, though filled with effort from my end. The system featured rudementary support for server types, as well as featuring an automated updating system for when I pushed changes.

On top of the free limitations (one server per user), users were able to purchase the Pro plan which allowed them to create another servers. The plan cost £1.99 per month. A premium plan was also available for £3.99 a month, which was billed as an addon to the Pro plan (meaning users paid an extra £2 per month). This allowed the creation of a further server. Overall, the project earned a total of £5.98 within its short operating lifespan.

 

Languages & Technologies

The entire system was built in Java, with some exceptions written in PHP as APIs that the system could access. The code quality is very poor, however the system was functional.
