Welcome to StellarStack

StellarStack is an open-source game server hosting panel built for the modern era. Manage Minecraft, Terraria, Valheim, and more from a unified interface with real-time monitoring, automated backups, and granular permissions. Self-host on your infrastructure or deploy to the cloud. Your servers, your control.
Alpha Software: Not Production ReadyStellarStack is in active development and should NOT be used in production environments. Expect breaking changes, incomplete features, and potential data loss. Use at your own risk.

The problem

Game server hosting hasn’t evolved with the rest of web infrastructure. Most panels are:
  • Single-server focused - Managing 10+ servers means juggling 10+ tabs
  • Feature-frozen - Built on PHP codebases from 2010, resistant to change
  • Permission-limited - Either full admin access or nothing
  • Backup-neglected - Manual backups or expensive third-party solutions
  • Mobile-unfriendly - Designed for desktop in a mobile-first world
Meanwhile, Vercel revolutionized web deployment. Kubernetes transformed container orchestration. Why are game servers stuck in the past?

The vision

StellarStack applies modern infrastructure patterns to game server management:

Multi-server by design

Unified dashboard for all your servers across multiple nodes

Permission-granular

45+ permission nodes for precise access control

Automation-first

Scheduled backups, tasks, webhooks, and event triggers

Real-time everything

WebSocket-powered console, stats, and notifications

API-driven

REST API with full panel feature parity

Self-hostable

Your hardware, your data, your rules

Core features

  • Multi-server dashboard with unified control panel
  • Real-time console with WebSocket updates
  • Power controls (start, stop, restart, kill)
  • Resource monitoring (CPU, memory, disk, network)
  • File manager with code editor
  • SFTP access for direct file transfers

Key concepts

Individual game server instances running in Docker containers. Each server is isolated with its own resources, port allocations, and file system.
Physical or virtual machines running the Rust daemon. Each node can host multiple servers and reports resource usage to the central API.
Logical grouping of nodes for organization (e.g., “US-East”, “EU-West”, “Asia-Pacific”). Helps users deploy servers close to their player base.
Pre-configured templates for common game servers (Minecraft, Terraria, Valheim). Includes startup commands, port configurations, and resource limits.
Invite players or team members with custom permissions. Grant console access, file manager, backups, or full admin rights per server.
