Deploy and manage Minecraft or Steam game servers from a distributed multi-user control panel.
Panel
Manage game servers with Pelican, an open-source panel built with Laravel and Docker.

About Panel
Pelican Panel is a free, open-source game server control panel built on Laravel and Docker. It is aimed at communities, hosting providers, and self-hosters. It provides a web interface for creating and managing game servers, and each server runs in its own isolated Docker container through Wings. The homepage describes it as a modern alternative within the Pterodactyl ecosystem.
Games and other services are installed from templates called eggs. The homepage lists eggs for Minecraft, SteamCMD-based games, standalone games, Discord bots, voice servers, databases, storage, and monitoring tools. The setup depends on Docker and Wings. The project is built and maintained by volunteers, and the homepage does not state hardware requirements or hosting costs.
