BentoBox is an expandable Minecraft **plugin** for island-type games like SkyBlock or AcidIsland.
## About BentoBox
### History
ASkyBlock and AcidIsland were originally created by [tastybento](https://github.com/tastybento).
These two plugins were sharing the same codebase, which grew fastly but ultimately became hard to maintain.
[Poslovitch](https://github.com/Poslovitch) was running a Skyblock server before starting to contribute regularly on ASkyBlock's codebase.
Then came the idea of *completely rewriting ASkyBlock*.
A turning point that would be called *BSkyBlock*.
In May 2017, tastybento agreed to the idea, and Poslovitch and him spent more time developing the code of the plugin which would become *BentoBox*.
During summer 2018, ASkyBlock's support got dropped and development was focused on the now called plugin *BentoBox*, which would then take over ASkyBlock and AcidIsland for 1.13+ servers.
### Description
BentoBox introduces a **unique Addon system** and a **powerful API** which allows for a technically **unlimited customization** of the gamemodes.
Therefore, BentoBox **does nothing on its own**: addons and gamemodes are bringing the features.
BentoBox being totally **free and open-sourced**, we are confident in seeing this platform grow and become even more powerful in the future.
Start now to create the server you've dreamed of!
## Addons
These include some popular Gamemodes:
* [**AcidIsland**](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/AcidIsland): You are marooned in a sea of acid!
* [**BSkyBlock**](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/BSkyBlock): The successor to the popular ASkyBlock.
* [**CaveBlock**](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/CaveBlock): Try to live underground!
* [**SkyGrid**](https://github.com/BentoBoxWorld/SkyGrid): Survive in world made up of scattered blocks - what an adventure!
All Addons can be found below:
