Nebula Hosting Control Deck
Formal hosting orchestration for Minecraft worlds that deserve better tooling.
Nebula Hosting merges local control, cloud operations, telemetry and recovery into one responsive workspace with a cleaner operational language.

Operations snapshot
A quieter, sharper server cockpit
Primary workspace
Responsive mission control
Local runtime
Rust-powered process control, files, console and recovery.
Cloud plane
Identity, orchestration, invites and hosted instances.
Capabilities
Infrastructure-facing UI without the usual clutter
The redesign favors operational clarity, reusable building blocks and subtler astronomical atmosphere instead of generic gaming-host landing page tropes.
Unified local and cloud operations
The same interaction model controls local instances and hosted nodes, so operators stop context-switching between tools.
Telemetry-first dashboards
Status, uptime, player counts, quick recovery and filesystem actions stay readable on desktop and mobile.
Recovery-aware lifecycle
Forced exits can remain visibly crashed until a deliberate restart, instead of quietly collapsing into generic offline state.
Version and loader workflows
Fabric, Paper, NeoForge and Vanilla creation flows are structured for repeatability instead of one-off modal hacks.
Cloud identity and invites
Discord-backed cloud sessions, collaboration invites and future plan rules fit into the same operational shell.
Shared component language
One visual system, one component vocabulary and one Tailwind-based code style for web, Windows and Android shells.
Architecture
A formal operations layer, not just a themed control panel
Nebula Hosting needs to look elegant, but the design also has to express system boundaries clearly: shell, runtime and cloud control plane all have different responsibilities.
Embedded Rust backend
Local runtime
The local mode is not a separate fork for Android. Desktop and Android both ride the same Tauri Rust runtime and only adapt the shell around it.
Shared HTTP backend
Cloud plane
Cloud identity, invites and hosted instances run through nebula-cloud, giving web and native clients the same control plane.
Tailwind + components
Interface system
The frontend stays Tailwind-based, but the redesign moves repeated surfaces and actions into explicit primitives so future work scales cleanly.
Entry points
Designed around operating mode before pricing theater
Nebula is a product with two real execution paths: local runtime control and cloud orchestration. The interface reflects that directly.
