Even Better Server Owner
by ar_tyyuu
Even Better Server Owner gives server operators moderation tools and in-game commands for managing players on a Minecraft server.
What it does
Server owners and moderators use the mod's commands to manage players from inside the game. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and the server alone needs it. Builds exist for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt, all for 1.21.1, and the mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source.
Key features
In-game moderation commands
Commands let operators moderate players and manage the server without leaving the game.

When Even Better Server Guardian is installed beside it, the server status display shows live TPS data from Guardian's monitor.
Datapack manager
A datapack manager is included among the tools for managing the world's content on the server.

How it compares
Admin Essentials is a Fabric mod for 1.21.1 that is server-side only and open source under the MIT License. NexusBridge runs on NeoForge for 1.21.1, is server-side only and is released under All rights reserved, so its terms are more restrictive.
