No virtual machine, no interpreter. The server ships as a single executable for Windows and Linux: download it and run it.
Bedrock server software, written from scratch in C++
Falcon reimplements the Minecraft: Bedrock Edition protocol, world storage and gameplay by hand. No runtime to install: one self-contained executable.

Features
Own transport
RakNet and NetherNet (WebRTC) are implemented in the Network library, with LAN discovery.
Vanilla worlds

Threaded chunks
Generation, population, lighting and LevelDB storage run on worker threads, never on the tick.
Behavior packs
Custom items, blocks, actors and recipes loaded from packs, with a QuickJS scripting engine.
