FeatherPanelOne panel.
All infrastructure.
Game servers, Proxmox VMs, and web hosting in one open-source control panel.
Platform
One panel for
game, VM, and web.
Run the stack you already use from a single interface.
Game servers
Deploy and monitor Minecraft, Rust, and other games. Console, files, and configs in one place.
Game hosting in detailVirtual machines
Manage Proxmox nodes and VMs from FeatherPanel. Start, stop, snapshot, and check status without switching tools.
Virtualization in detailWeb hosting
Sites, domains, databases, SSL, and files on FeatherQuilld nodes, alongside games and VMs.
Web hosting in detailMeasured performance
Higher throughput and lower latency than Pterodactyl in our weekly load tests (run 26 Oct 2026, 12:23 UTC).
Plugin system
Add features with plugins. Install from the MythicalSystems marketplace or write your own with the SDK.
Security basics in core
TLS 1.3, encrypted secrets, 2FA, and audit logs are included in the core panel.
Every feature, taken from the code, is listed in the docs: read the feature list.
Usage
Running on real
installs.
Aggregate counts from panels that leave telemetry on. No install IDs. Totals as of 2 Nov 2026.
Telemetry is on by default and can be turned off in the panel.How it works.
Product gallery
Everything in
one place.
Game servers, VMs, websites, and the FeatherOS desktop, all from the live demo panel. Pick a screen, then click it to view full screen.
Game servers, virtual servers, web hosting, and support tickets on one page, with the items that need attention up top.
Performance
Load test
results at 4 CPUs.
Load tests at 4 CPUs against Pterodactyl, Pelican and Hydrodactyl, all on the same machine in the same run. We re-run them every week. Last run: 26 Oct 2026, 12:23 UTC.

Why more memory?
FeatherPanel runs a larger stack
In the latest run FeatherPanel peaked at 196 MiB and Pterodactyl at 143 MiB. FeatherPanel also runs a Next.js UI, Redis queues, a Rust async runner, the Web IDE, and Proxmox VM hosting next to game hosting, and that is where the extra memory goes. The same run measured higher throughput and lower latency than Pterodactyl.
Test machine
Every panel ran on this one machine, one after another, 3 rounds, median shown. Peak CPU and memory at 4 CPUs.
| Panel | Peak CPU | Peak memory |
|---|---|---|
| FeatherPanel | 251% | 196 MiB |
| Pterodactyl | 357% | 143 MiB |
| Pelican | 367% | 328 MiB |
| Hydrodactyl | 357% | 134 MiB |

FeatherPanel is an open-source panel for game servers, Proxmox VMs, and web hosting. You can self-host it for free under AGPL-3.0.
Yes. It talks to your Proxmox nodes so you can start, stop, snapshot, and configure VMs and containers from the panel.
Yes. Web hosting runs through FeatherQuilld nodes: sites, domains, SSL, databases, and files in the same UI as your game servers and VMs.
Minecraft (Java and Bedrock), Rust, and more via the spell/egg system. Browse community eggs at eggs.mythicalsystems.org, or import your own templates.
Self-hosted FeatherPanel is free under AGPL-3.0 with no seat limits, no server caps, and full feature access. Cloud is optional: we host the panel on MythicalSystems hardware and you bring your nodes.
Enterprise plans include Pterodactyl addon portability. We also publish migration docs for the common paths.
Self-hosted means you run the panel on your own machines. Cloud means MythicalSystems hosts the panel on our hardware; you attach your own nodes. You get updates, monitoring, and a 99.9% uptime SLA.
Browse FeatherPanel addons on the MythicalSystems marketplace. You can also build your own with the SDK.
