AstraLibs

Stop writing the same Minecraft plugin boilerplate. Again.

AstraLibs is a Kotlin-first toolkit that handles the repetitive parts of plugin and mod development - so you focus on what makes your plugin unique, not on wiring up commands, GUIs, and lifecycle hooks for the hundredth time.

Used in production across EmpireProjekt.ru plugins.

Why AstraLibs?

Commands without the noise. Declare full Brigadier command trees in a clean Kotlin DSL. Arguments are parsed by typed converters; errors bubble up to a single handler. No null checks, no if/else forests, no boilerplate. Just your logic. - command docs · command-bukkit docs

Inventory GUIs that don't leak. Build chest-style menus with a fluent slot builder, semantic layout mapping, and reactive pagination driven by StateFlow. The menu's coroutine scope is tied to its lifecycle and cancelled the moment the player closes it - zero manual cleanup. - menu-bukkit docs

One codebase, multiple platforms. Core abstractions - lifecycle, economy, players, events - work identically on Paper, NeoForge, and Fabric. Swap the platform module, keep your logic untouched.

Kotlin all the way down. Coroutine dispatchers, Flow-based event streams, extension-function DSLs. No Java compatibility layers, no compromises on the API surface.
