About Essential Commands
From ModrinthConfigurable, permissions-backed utility commands for Fabric servers (tpa, home, warp, spawn, back, nick, rtp)
Essential Commands
Essential Commands is a Minecraft (Fabric) mod that adds several simple commands to the game.
All commands are [configurable][config-docs] and toggleable. \ The mod is purely serverside, and is not required on the client. (but it does work on singleplayer worlds).

Permissions
Essential Commands supports permissions mods like LuckPerms! All commands and sub-commands have their own permissions node in the form:
essentialcommands.<command>.<subcommand>
_Note: The config option use_permissions_api must be set to true for permissions to have an effect._ ([Permissions Quickstart][permissions-quickstart])
Commands
All of these commands support automatic tab completion using Minecraft's new commands system.
