Introduction

What is Selv?

Selv is a free and open-source desktop application that makes creating and managing Minecraft servers simple and accessible. It allows you to host servers directly on your own computer, giving you control over your game worlds without relying on a traditional server hosting provider.

Whether you want to play with a few friends or share your server with a larger community, Selv aims to make server management accessible to everyone.

How does it work?

Selv runs on your computer and provides a simple, intuitive interface to create, configure and manage your Minecraft servers.

Instead of manually setting up server files and running commands, you can manage your servers directly through the application.

Selv also lets you obtain a free, customized IP address for each server, making it easier for other players to connect without having to share your raw IP address.

Is it really free?

Yes! Selv is completely free to use, with no advertisements, premium plans or paid features.

Our goal is to keep server hosting accessible to everyone. You can also keep one customized IP address per server indefinitely, at no additional cost.*

Why should I use Selv?

Simple server management

Creating and managing a Minecraft server shouldn’t require advanced technical knowledge. Selv provides a straightforward interface so you can focus on your game rather than the technical setup.

Complete freedom

Your servers run on your own computer, giving you full control over their configuration, files and installed server software.

No hosting subscription required

You don’t need to rent a dedicated Minecraft server from a hosting provider. You can use your own hardware and internet connection instead.

*: Customized IP availability and retention are subject to the service’s terms and technical limitations.
