Chunky lets you pre-generate chunks on your Minecraft server to reduce lag before players explore the world. A chunk is a 16×16 section of the world that loads when players are nearby, and generating them ahead of time helps the server run more smoothly. Chunky can run multiple generation tasks, pause and resume progress as needed, and provide real-time stats such as chunks processed, completion percentage, ETA, and generation speed.
