# Installation

## Official download links

The plugin can be bought and downloaded from [BuiltByBit](https://builtbybit.com/resources/26176/).

## Bukkit/Spigot/Paper

Installation on Bukkit/Spigot/Paper and other backend forks are as simple as can be.\
Just drag the plugin into the plugins folder and reboot the server.\
Dynamic (re)loads at runtime to load the plugin are supported however may cause issues.

## Proxy

eGlow isn't made to work on the proxy so I recommend this setup instead:

* eGlow on all backend servers
* (Optional) MySQL enabled to sync data between servers

If you have the TAB plugin (by NEZNAMY) installed you want to install the eGlow TAB proxy addon which can be downloaded in the eGlow discord after verifying.
