Minecraft Build Mapper

About

Planning tool, not a world exporter

Minecraft Build Mapper turns a photograph of a real-world building into a structured, Minecraft-friendly construction plan. It is designed as a serious creative design tool for builders who want dimensions, palettes, materials, elevations, and phased guidance before placing blocks.

What the MVP can generate

  • Architectural analysis with uncertainties called out
  • Recommended block dimensions and floor count
  • Block palette grounded in PrismarineJS minecraft-data (names, hardness, edition tags)
  • Estimated material quantities with stack conversion
  • Floorplan, elevation, roof, detail, and terrain guidance
  • Numbered construction phases with checkpoints
  • JSON / CSV export and print-friendly output
  • Façade review: building mask, floor lines, materials before generation
  • User accounts with per-profile saved projects
  • Project save, duplicate, delete, and revise flows

What it does not generate yet

  • Actual 3D Minecraft schematics or worlds
  • Litematica (`.litematic`) files
  • Bedrock structure (`.mcstructure`) files
  • Interactive 3D previews or layer diagrams
  • Live Minecraft schematic (.schem) export
  • Shared public gallery or collaborative editing
  • OAuth providers (Google, Discord, etc.)

Demo mode

Without an OpenAI API key, the app stays fully usable. The View Demo button opens a prebuilt Cliffside Stone Manor plan, and the new-project form can generate a clearly labeled mock plan. The UI never silently pretends live AI analysis occurred.
