LuckPerms is an advanced permissions implementation aiming to be a fast, reliable and flexible alternative to existing permission plugins. The project's main goals are centered around high performance and a wide feature set, filling the gaps of functionality and building upon existing features found in other plugins.
LuckPerms also includes an extensive API for developers, and support for a variety of Minecraft server software & data storage options.

LuckPerms loosely follows the Google Java Style Guide, with a few minor changes here and there. Generally, try to copy the style of code found in the class you're editing.
The project is split up into 5 seperate modules.
- API - The public facing API classes used by other plugins when integrating with LuckPerms. This is basically just a collection of interfaces implemented inside of the plugin.
- Common - This includes all of the classes shared by separate implementations of LuckPerms. This is where the bulk of the project is.
- Bukkit, BungeeCord & Sponge - Includes all of the platform specific classes used to implement LuckPerms on each of the 3 supported platforms.
