+**Allows the connection of higher client versions to lower server versions -
+it works on any platform you can think of.**
+
+The base ViaVersion jar runs on [Paper](https://papermc.io/software/paper/)
+and [Velocity](https://papermc.io/software/velocity/). We also have projects integrating ViaVersion to run
+on [Fabric](https://github.com/ViaVersion/ViaFabric), [Forge](https://github.com/ViaVersion/ViaForge), [Bungee](https://github.com/ViaVersion/ViaBungee), [Sponge](https://github.com/ViaVersion/ViaSponge),
+or as [a standalone proxy](https://github.com/ViaVersion/ViaProxy) to join from basically any client version on
+any server version from the past decade. **See [HERE](https://viaversion.com) for an overview of the different Via\*
+projects.**
+
+Note that ViaVersion will be able to **run best on either Paper servers or
+through [ViaFabricPlus](https://github.com/ViaVersion/ViaFabricPlus?tab=readme-ov-file#viafabricplus)** due to having
+direct access to client/server state and more extensive API.
