1. Start the server in the Panel. The world is generated on the first start.
2. Open Minecraft and go to Play → Servers → Add Server.
3. Enter the IP under Server Address and the port under Port. The address (IP and port) is shown in the Panel in the Address tile and in the customer area.

Set game mode, difficulty and cheats with the variables Gamemode, Difficulty and Allow cheats. You change settings in the Panel under Startup, in the variables. Restart the server afterwards.

On Xbox, PlayStation and Switch, Minecraft doesn't allow custom servers directly. There it only works with workarounds, for example a DNS trick.
