# BetterScoreboard<\/p>\n
While originally written to be a simple and small scoreboard plugin, BetterScoreboard has quickly evolved past that.
\nToday, BetterScoreboard is a platform-independent, packet-based, and highly modular plugin that includes scoreboard and
\nboss bar support, with things like action bars and tab modification being planned additions.<\/p>\n
This project and its collaborators use the following regularly and are thankful for their maintenance:
\n– PacketEvents
\n– sharkbyte-bossbar
\n– sharkbyte-scoreboard.<\/p>\n
## Requirements<\/p>\n
This plugin only supports 1.20.3+ on platforms with an existing BetterScoreboard implementation. This includes Spigot,
\nPaper (and its forks), Folia, Sponge, and Fabric.<\/p>\n
You **MUST install PacketEvents** for BetterScoreboard to work!<\/p>\n
