Eaglercraft
Eaglercraft is an open-source, browser-based port of Minecraft originally created by a developer known as lax1dude. Rather than requiring you to purchase the game or install anything locally, Eaglercraft converts Minecraft's Java code into JavaScript or WebAssembly and delivers it through a standard web browser.
Eaglercraft runs smoothly on school Chromebooks, Windows and Mac computers, Android phones, iPhones, and tablets.
