JoinBook

JoinBook is a lightweight and easy-to-use Paper plugin designed to improve the onboarding experience for new players on your Minecraft server.

When a player joins the server for the first time, JoinBook automatically gives them a custom written book and instantly opens it for reading. This allows server owners to provide important information, server rules, gameplay guides, tutorials, community links, or any other content that new players should see before starting their adventure.

All book content is fully configurable through the plugin's configuration file. You can customize the book title, author, and every page of the book without modifying the source code. This makes it simple to adapt the plugin to different server types, including Survival, SMP, SkyBlock, RPG, Creative, and Minigame servers.

In addition to the guide book system, JoinBook also supports optional starter-kit notifications. Server owners can use this feature alongside popular plugins such as EssentialsX to inform players that they have received beginner rewards or starter items.
