Project details

Disenchantment is a Java-based Minecraft plugin built with the Spigot API, designed to enhance the vanilla gameplay experience by reimagining how anvils function. The plugin introduces a new mechanic that allows players to remove and recover enchantments from items, offering more control and flexibility in item management and enchantment strategy.

The project was developed with a strong focus on compatibility, maintainability, and player experience. Supporting versions from 1.18 through 1.21.5, Disenchantment integrates seamlessly into any Minecraft server setup without requiring additional dependencies. It features intuitive player interactions, permission-based controls, and detailed in-game feedback, making it a lightweight yet powerful addition to gameplay.

Development involved crafting custom event listeners, command handlers, and inventory GUIs using the Spigot API. Great care was taken to ensure that the plugin follows best practices for performance and thread safety, including asynchronous processing for tasks such as item validation and enchantment data handling. The project is fully open source and actively maintained, with a clear codebase and community feedback loop via GitHub and SpigotMC.
