What Roblox Studio is

Roblox Studio is a free development environment for building, scripting, testing, and publishing Roblox experiences. Its 3D tools let creators place, move, rotate, and texture objects, and its script editor includes syntax highlighting, code completion, and inline documentation. Device emulation and playtesting help check experiences across screen sizes and form factors. The built-in Assistant can answer questions, update the data model, modify scripts, generate materials and textures, and automate bulk actions. Studio supports real-time collaboration and group-based access controls for projects and assets. The Creator Store offers models, meshes, images, sounds, videos, and plugins. Open Cloud provides REST APIs for Roblox resources, though Engine Open Cloud APIs are in beta, limited to reading and updating script objects, require API-key authentication, and cap request bodies at 200 KB. Studio runs on Windows and macOS, with Windows 10 and macOS 10.14 listed as minimums and Windows 11, macOS 14+, and 8 GB RAM recommended. The listed plan requires a Roblox account and notes a 3 GB RAM minimum.
