Overview
In Minecraft, snapshots refer to early, experimental versions of upcoming updates released for testing purposes. These snapshots allow players to preview and provide feedback on new features, changes, and bug fixes before the official release. While they can contain exciting content, snapshots are not entirely stable and may have unresolved issues. By exploring these snapshots, players can contribute to the development process by testing new functionalities and providing valuable feedback to the Minecraft development team.
Note: Exercise caution when installing snapshots, as they may lead to potential server issues such as crashes, lag, and world corruption.
Note: When using the 1.20.3 snapshot, it is necessary to create a new world.
