About The Iris Project

The Iris project is a server primarily dedicated to the development of the popular Minecraft shaders mod Iris. Alongside the regular development conversations, you can hang out with a healthy, regularly active community. We have many channels to check out, even areas you may deem unrelated to a Minecraft mod! We also offer public test builds and exclusive development builds often for testing.
