A community-driven open source Minecraft: Java Edition modding platform. SpongeForge, a coremod for Minecraft Forge, which is an existing Minecraft: Java Edition modding framework famous for spurring the Minecraft modding scene. Forge lacks a cross-version API, and this is where Sponge steps in. Sponge allows server owners to deploy Sponge plugins with ease, making server management easier.

The goal of this issue is to understand how spigot is extended with plugins. I think it is using Bukkit which is a module inside spigot. But not sure yet.

Spigot is the fork of Bukkit once their developers were hired bt Mojang.

For the client, it seems that the plugins are based on Forge: http://files.minecraftforge.net/

For the client side, I will continue the research here: Voxelers/mcthings#38

Spigot, Bukkit and others recovers the server with an API that can be used by mods that modify the server but using an API. The client is not modified.

Forge modify directly the Java code in client and server, you need to install the same version of forge in the client and in the server.
