Roblox preservation has pretty much been a solved problem since around 2016. The clients all have built-in network servers and many people have built launchers to let you easily play a server with your friends. A lot of the knowledge is unfortunately gatekeeped inside Discord communities of crazy people but there are a few "good names" out there (Novetus is the big one)

Thanks for that info.

To be honest this librebox project looks kinda fishy to me. Seems like the author never used version control before. They put everything into one commit [1] and are making changes to the repo using the Github web UI. I wish the dev the best of luck but I wouldn't be surprised if this project gets abandoned in a few months

Haha, thanks for telling me about that. Reflecting now, I feel that was a little goofy.

I was working on the project by myself in VS Code and, along with the demo, committed the entire source code on release. Future development will, of course, be used with version control. I'm also sharpening my version control skills.

I had simply done some quick changes with the web UI for language (and also to add more demo images later).

Not sure how this is correlated to the actual product though.

It's a tell, like in poker. Just saying you're inexperienced, that's all lol. Everyone gets their start somewhere and who knows maybe this ends up being huge.

Unsolicited advice: Stop using the Github web UI asap. It will slow you down. VScode has git integration. There's an upfront cost to learning it but it's worth it.

If you're willing to take the plunge it's best to use the git command-line interface directly. It pays in the long run. But I understand it's kind of daunting at first.

Whatever you decide, whether its VScode or the git CLI, just get off of the Github web UI. Trust me. I look at my old projects from when I was in high school and I deeply regret that I didn't do version control. So much information that gets lost.
