👋, I'm MCMDEV.

I'm a semi-retired Minecraft technical guy who is currently employed by a large German IT company as a Platforms Engineer. I used to do all sorts of technical work (development, sysadmin, technical lead, pretty much everything else) on some Minecraft servers, of which some were very successful (NeruxVace, which is long dead now but had around 5k concurrent players about ten years ago) and some are small but just exceptionally well-made (such as [JustChunks](https://justchunks.net/en)).

I offer **free** education and consultation on integrating modern software development methodology into Minecraft server development in a sensible way. 
Specifically, I focus on:
- Versioning plugin configuration and other server files
- Automatic releases by using CI/CD
- Containerisation
For some more complex projects, these topics could also be interesting:
- Infrastructure as Code using Terraform
- Deployment in Kubernetes
My passion is educating others and coming up with the best possible solution for complex technical problems. Given my well-paying job and limited spare time, I have little interest in commercial Minecraft services nowadays.
