Rojo
Rojo helps Roblox developers use software engineering tools to build projects.
About Rojo
Rojo is an open-source tool for Roblox developers who want to work with professional software engineering tools. It allows scripts and models to live on the filesystem for editing in an external editor, versioning with Git or another VCS, real-time streaming of rbxmx and rbxm models into a game, and packaging or deploying a project to Roblox.com from the command line. It can also pull Instances from Roblox place and model files back into an existing Rojo project using rojo syncback, and its Studio plugin has an optional two-way sync setting for supported Studio edits.
Some workflows remain limited; for example, fully automatic conversion of every existing game into a Rojo project may require manual configuration. Rojo is licensed under MPL-2.0 and documentation is hosted separately at rojo.space.
