Axion is an open-source Minecraft building toolkit inspired by Axiom, built as a Fabric client mod with a companion Paper plugin for server-backed multiplayer editing.
Axion brings fast in-game building tools directly into Minecraft with hotbar-based editing, live previews, symmetry, long-range building modes, and multiplayer-safe execution through the Paper plugin.
The Fabric mod handles the client-side tools, previews, input, config UI, and local singleplayer behavior.
The Paper plugin handles authoritative multiplayer edit application, validation, history, undo/redo, and large-operation transport.
