A client-side mod for Fabric, Quilt, Forge and NeoForge that adds a fast, native server browser to Minecraft's Multiplayer screen. Search, filter, check live status and join, without leaving the game.
Website and downloads: https://serverify.louchat.site/
- Browser: two columns of server cards with a colored banner, icon, name, version, country, player count and description. Endless scrolling, plus back and forward navigation between pages.
- Categories and search: 25 category checkboxes (Survival, Skyblock, Prison, PvP, Towny, Cobblemon and more), search with a short delay while you type, a sort menu (popular, newest, players, name), and an online-only filter.
- Live status: the server page uses Minecraft's own server ping for real latency, player count, version and the live colored MOTD, and refreshes every 30 to 60 seconds.
- Join or save: connect immediately, or add the server to your Multiplayer list in one click.
- Favorites: a local list stored as JSON in
config/serverify/. - Sources: minecraft-list.info loads first, then other sites. The same server never appears twice.
- Settings: enable or disable each source and set the refresh interval, through Mod Menu.
| Server page | Live status | Settings |

- Install the mod loader for your Minecraft version: Fabric (Quilt also works), Forge or NeoForge.
- On Fabric or Quilt, also download Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin. Forge and NeoForge need nothing else.
- Download the Serverify jar for your loader and version from the latest release.
- Put the jars in
.minecraft/mods. - Start the game, open Multiplayer and press the Serverify button.
Jars are named serverify-<loader>-mc<version>-<release>.jar. Each one covers the range of Minecraft versions in .github/versions.json.
| Loader | Minecraft versions |
|---|---|
| Fabric and Quilt | 1.16.5, 1.17.1, 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.19.4, 1.20.1, 1.20.4, 1.20.6, 1.21.1, 1.21.4, 1.21.5, 1.21.8, 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.2, 26.3 |
| Forge | 1.17.1, 1.19.2, 1.19.4, 1.20.1 |
| NeoForge | 1.20.4, 1.20.6, 1.21.1, 1.21.4, 1.21.5 |
Java 8 runs 1.16.5, Java 16 runs 1.17, Java 17 runs 1.18 to 1.20.4, Java 21 runs 1.20.5 to 1.21.11 and Java 25 runs 26.x. Mod Menu is optional on Fabric. Quilt loads the Fabric jars and has not been tested separately.
You need JDK 25 to run Gradle. The build targets the right Java version for each Minecraft version.
./gradlew buildThe jar is written to build/libs/. Build another loader or Minecraft version by passing every value of its entry in .github/versions.json as a Gradle property, which is what CI does:
jq -r '.[] | select(.name == "forge-1.20.1") | del(.name, .publish) | to_entries[] | "-P\(.key)=\(.value)"' .github/versions.json \
| xargs ./gradlew buildFabric builds run the scripted in-game tests that save screenshots. runProductionClientGameTest launches the real remapped jar. Add -Psmoke=true on versions that predate Fabric's client game test API. Forge and NeoForge builds are checked in a development client with runClient -Psmoke_main=true, which opens each screen and saves screenshots.

src/main/kotlin/gui/ the interface, built with Elementa
The interface is written in Kotlin on Elementa and UniversalCraft, which are bundled and relocated inside the jar. CI builds every Minecraft version listed in versions.json, and a weekly job checks that the newest Minecraft release still builds.
Add an entry to .github/versions.json with the loader, the Minecraft version, the loader version, the UniversalCraft version, the compat generation and the version range. Entries with "publish": true are released.
Pushing a tag such as v0.3.0 builds the jars marked "publish": true in versions.json, publishes them to GitHub Releases with the notes from CHANGELOG.md, and uploads them to Modrinth.
Server listings come from third-party sites. Some are read from public pages, so listings can change or stop working without notice. Serverify is not affiliated with Mojang, Microsoft or any listed server.
The interface is heavily inspired by Resourcify by DeDiamondPro: the navigation bar, the category sidebar, the search bar, the sort menu, the two-column cards and the project page layout all follow its design, adapted here for servers. Parts of its source code (the screen frame, navigation bar, drop-down, check boxes, card layout, color palette and a few layout helpers) were adapted under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3. Those files keep their original copyright notice and say that they were modified. Resourcify's image files were not used.
Serverify is built on these libraries, used under their own licenses:
- Elementa (DeDiamondPro's build of Essential's UI library) and UniversalCraft, LGPL-3.0, bundled in the jar. Elementa also brings two small images, a loading spinner and a scrollbar texture.
- jsoup, MIT license, bundled in the jar.
- Fabric Language Kotlin, Apache-2.0, installed separately.
Serverify's source code, tests, documentation and website text were written with the help of an AI coding assistant (Claude, by Anthropic).
No assets are AI-generated or taken from other people's work. Serverify adds no images, textures, sounds, models or fonts of its own. The only images in the jar come from the Elementa library (see above). The screenshots in this repository are real captures of the game running the mod. They show Minecraft's interface and server names and icons from public listings, which belong to their owners. The website uses the open-licensed fonts Inter, Open Sans and Inconsolata. The test fixtures are short captured samples of public listing data, used only to test the parsers.

I encourage DeDiamondPro, the creator of Resourcify, to contact me if he does not like me using his UI design. I will redesign it myself when asked.
