Ideal Way to Approach an Admin Panel

What would be an ideal way to handle an Admin Panel’s commands?

I have one idea for it but I’m not sure if it might be ideal for PlaceMemory, Script Memory and generally optimized code. Basically, the first idea was to have the Main LocalScript to setup the buttons and panel options.

local function setupPanel() : nil
    local PanelButtons = Panel.Options
    local PanelPages = Panel.OptionFrame
    for _, Button : TextButton in ipairs(PanelButtons:GetChildren()) do
        if Button and Button:IsA("TextButton") then
            local Menu = PanelPages:FindFirstChild(Button.Name)
            Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
                PanelPages.Placeholder.Visible = false
                if Menu and Menu:IsA("Frame") then
                    Menu.Visible = not Menu.Visible
                end
            end)
        end
    end
end

Then I would require the command’s module and everything would run in there.

My goal is to make a working optimized admin panel, so please feel free post your ideas! I don’t exactly need code snippets, just ideas.

Personally, I would do exactly what you are trying to accomplish with the setupPanel() function.

When the button is clicked, pass in the name of the button to the module script and execute the code from there.

You will have to secure the GUI and the Module script though.

Yes, I have 100% secured my code with the Server, I feel safe to work from here. Thank you for expanding upon my idea!
A snippet I came up with.

local CommandModule = require(Button.Name) -- or command name
