Always up to date – automatically!
NeverUp2Late keeps your server and plugins updated without you ever having to hunt for download links again.
It supports Paper, Spigot (plugins), Geyser, and plugins from Hangar, Modrinth, CurseForge, GitHub Releases, Jenkins and more.
Once installed, it runs in the background: check → download → install → done!
You can start immediately with a simple command or use the guided in-game setup wizard.
⚠️ Important:
Make sure your server is configured to automatically restart after a stop, otherwise automatic restarts triggered by updates will shut it down without coming back online.
