ResourcepackPlus

ResourcepackPlus is a Minecraft plugin that automatically keeps your server’s resource pack up to date. It pulls the pack from GitHub, uploads it to Dropbox, and updates server.properties with the correct SHA-1 and URL. Storing the pack on GitHub makes version control and collaboration easy, while Dropbox provides a direct download link for Minecraft to use.

I originally built this for a Minecraft theme park project, but open-sourced it so anyone can use it for their own server. The plugin is built with the help of AI.

1. Download the plugin here
