This repository keeps an archive of official Minecraft releases from 1.0 to the latest version. Both client.jar and server.jar are available in the Releases tab.
The archive updates automatically every week and adds new versions when Mojang releases them.
For each release version, this archive includes:
client.jar, used by the Minecraft Launcherserver.jar, used for hosting multiplayer servers when available
You can download them directly from the Releases page without needing to dig through Mojang’s API or launcher files.
This repository is powered by:
- a Python script that fetches version data from Mojang’s official version manifest
- a GitHub Actions workflow that runs every Monday
- a check for new Minecraft versions
- downloads for the latest
client.jarandserver.jar - a new GitHub Release when a version is added
This project redistributes Mojang’s publicly available .jar files for archival and preservation only.
