| Fact | CraftControl Dashboard | Crafty Controller |
|---|---|---|
| API | The daemon exposes HTTP endpoints and a WebSocket protocol that other tools can integrate with. | Crafty publishes an API v2 reference and links an OpenAPI specification for the endpoints. |
| Authentication | Firebase Authentication and Firestore provide role-based access for Admin, Moderator, and Pending users. | The documentation includes setup guides for TOTP authentication and passkeys. |
| Backups | Scheduled backups bundle server worlds and archive them to Google Drive. | The interface includes server backup management and backup downloads. |
| Integrations | Users can search and install plugins and world datapacks from Modrinth and SpigotMC. | Server webhooks can send notifications to Slack, Mattermost, Discord, and Teams; the documentation notes provider rate limits can delay or lose notifications. |
| License | The project is licensed under the MIT License. | Crafty Controller is released under the GNU General Public License v3, with source available for inspection and modification. |
| Monitoring | Live telemetry charts show CPU usage, memory consumption, and ticks per second (TPS). | The documentation lists Open-Metrics (Prometheus) among its server management features. |
| Purpose | CraftControl is a self-hostable Minecraft server control panel and dashboard for administrators managing servers for themselves and friends. | Crafty Controller is a free, open-source Minecraft server launcher and manager with a self-hosted web interface. |
| Security | The dashboard authenticates to the daemon with a bearer token, and the daemon validates file paths to keep them within the configured Minecraft directory. | The maker says Crafty uses Argon2 password hashing, defaults to an SSL certificate secured web server, and stores data locally on the self-hosted machine. |
