Before being able to run FourKit, you need [.NET 10 Runtime](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/10.0)

After you install .NET 10, grab the [latest release from github](https://github.com/sylvessa/MinecraftConsoles/releases/tag/nightly-dedicated-server)

Plugins end as a .DLL file. Some plugins require it to be in its own folder (due to having dependencies)
