The principal difference is that our implementation of Notchian server do not contain any feature by default! However we have a complete API which allow you to make anything possible with current spigot's plugin. + +# Why Minestom ? +Minecraft evolued a lot since its release, most servers today do not take advantage of vanilla features and even have to struggle because of them. Our target audience is those who want to make a completely different server compared to default survival. +The goal is to offer more performance for those who need it, minecraft being single-threaded is the most important problem for them. + +# Pros & Cons +Minestom isn't perfect, our choices make it much better for some case, worse for some. + +## Pros +* Remove the overhead of vanilla features +* Multi-threaded (Chunks & Entities) +* 100% Thread-Safe +* Instance system which is much more scalable than worlds files +* Open-source +* Modern API +* No more disgusting NMS + +## Cons +* Do not work with bukkit plugins +* Bad for those who want vanilla experience
