prismarine-web-client
A Minecraft client running in a web page. Live demo at https://prismarine.js.org/prismarine-web-client/
How it Works
prismarine-web-client runs mineflayer and prismarine-viewer in the browser, which connects over WebSocket to a proxy which translates the WebSocket connection into TCP to connect to normal Minecraft servers.

Live Demo
Click on this link to open it in your browser, no installation necessary: https://prismarine.js.org/prismarine-web-client
Tested on Chrome & Firefox for desktop platforms.
Usage
To host it yourself, run these commands in bash:
$ npm install -g prismarine-web-client
$ prismarine-web-client
Finally, open http://localhost:8080 in your browser.
Features
- Display mobs and players
- Display blocks
- Movement (you can move, and you see entities moving live)
- Place and break blocks
Roadmap
- Containers (inventory, chests, etc.)
- Sounds
- More World Interactions (attacking entities, etc.)
- Cosmetic Rendering Features (day night cycle, fog, etc.)
Development
If you're contributing/making changes, you need to install it differently.
First, clone the repo.
Then, set your working directory to that of the repo. For example:
$ cd ~/prismarine-viewer/
Finally, run
$ npm install
$ npm start
This will start express and webpack in development mode: whenever you save a file, the build will be redone (it takes 5s), and you can refresh the page to get the new result.
Connect to http://localhost:8080 in your browser.
You may want to disable auto saving in your IDE to avoid constant rebuilding, see https://webpack.js.org/guides/development/#adjusting-your-text-editor
To check the production build (take a minute to build), you can run npm run build-start
