Is Lodestone free?

Yes. We strive to make Lodestone open source and free for personal use.

What makes Lodestone unique from all the other server wrappers?

Lodestone focuses on the user experience. We believe game server hosting can be a simple process with no cost. Our UI is so intuitive that even your grandma can use it!

Lodestone also have a unique set of features that makes it easy to use for a novice user, and extremely powerful for power users. Some of the features include:

  • True one-click setup, we manage all the dependencies for you!
  • Collaborative server management
  • Individual user account & permissions
  • Real-time notification
  • Remote file explorer

Q: Is Lodestone safe?

Safety is our top priority. Since Lodestone is self-hosted, you have full control of your data at all times. Lodestone account credentials are hashed and stored securely and locally.

Since we are open-source, you can always check the code and compile it from source if you would like.

Q: Can I use Lodestone in my project?

As long as your project license is compatible with APGL (this usually means your project has to be open source too), and you attribute us, you are good to go!

If you would like a different license please raise an issue or contact us on Discord.

What is Lodestone Core? How is it different from Lodestone

Lodestone Core is the "backend" of Lodestone that takes in requests from the dashboard and forwards them to the server executable. It also manages files, backups, user accounts & permissions, and more. Lodestone Core can be run independently if you don't need a UI.

Lodestone is comprised of Lodestone Core and a dashboard with which the user interacts.
