ViaVersion addon to add support for Minecraft: Bedrock Edition servers.
ViaBedrock aims to be as compatible and accurate as possible with the Minecraft: Bedrock Edition protocol.
ViaBedrock is in very early stages of development and NOT intended for regular use yet.
Do not report any bugs yet. There are still a lot of things which are not implemented yet.
If you want to talk about ViaBedrock or learn more about it you can join my Discord.
To use ViaBedrock independently of any server or client software, you can download the latest ViaProxy dev build (Click on the ViaProxy-x.x.x.jar file).
To use ViaBedrock as a Fabric mod, you can download the latest ViaFabricPlus dev build.
