NeoForge is an open-source modding API and mod loader for Minecraft: Java Edition, forked from Forge and maintained by the NeoForged project. It provides the runtime and development toolchain (including Gradle plugins and MDKs) that mods use to hook into Minecraft on both client and server.
Use cases
- create mods for minecraft java edition
- load forge-style mods on a minecraft server
- migrate an existing forge mod to neoforge
- set up a mod development environment with gradle
- build and debug modpacks with neoforge mods
- run a modded minecraft server
When to choose
- you are developing new Minecraft Java Edition mods and want a modern, actively maintained modding API
- you run a modded server or modpack and want up-to-date support for recent Minecraft versions
- you are migrating an existing Forge mod and want a compatible, community-driven successor
When to avoid
- you target older Minecraft versions only supported by legacy Forge
- you need a Fabric-based lightweight mod loader ecosystem
- you are not working with Minecraft at all
