Setting up a Server

Java Server Download
If you want to run a Minecraft multiplayer server by yourself things get kind of involved (see this wiki article for a tutorial). First make sure you can use java from the command line. On Linux and macOS this should already be set up but on Windows you might have to tinker with the PATH environment variable.
Bedrock Server Download
If you want to run a multiplayer server for Minecraft, start by downloading the Bedrock Dedicated Server for either Windows or Ubuntu (Linux).
