Why You’d Use It

# Download the latest BetonQuest JAR from the official website.
# Place the JAR in your server’s plugins directory.
# Restart your server.
Upon first run, necessary folders and files will be created. Configure your quests through the generated files in the `BetonQuest` server directory.
