What is Rossentials?
Rossentials are a series of plugins that are currently a work-in-progress, it provides essential tools for being a developer on Roblox. These plugins currently include the following ones, but more are to be added in the future:

  • RossentialsCore
    This is Rossentials’s framework, without it the other Rossentials plugins can’t run. RossentialsCore also includes some features you’re just going to need as an Roblox Developer.

  • RossentialsBuilder
    This is a plugin to help builders have a more efficient workflow.

  • RossentialsScripter
    This is a plugin to help scripters have a more efficient workflow.

  • RossentialsEx
    This plugin doesn’t exist yet, but it’s planned to only have simple and optional features.

What can it do?
Currently, these are the implemented features for:

RossentialsCore
  • Dumping basic yet useful information about RossentialsCore.
  • Detecting viruses (still highly in beta testing).
RossentialsBuilder
RossentialsScripter
  • Printing the absolute path of any Instance to the output window.
RossentialsEx

Thanks for reading
Please let me know what you think about this concept. My main goal was, and still is, to minimize the amount of plugins and storage required while still having tons of tools available.

You forgot to add features for the RossentialsBuilder and RossentialsEx.

Currently, RossentialsBuilder doesn’t have any features I’d say are worth writing down, and RossentialsEx doesn’t even exist yet, I just came up with that one.

So what’s the point of downloading it?

Why not just update the post later with it?

I feel like you are putting the cart before the horse and releasing this too soon. You should be focused on having something for developers to want first and then release it for people to use. As a majority of developers will see this post and move on and will likely not come back to check if anything was added.

For RossentialsBuilder specifically, there isn’t a point to downloading it right now. :confused:
I have some features planned for it though.

Because the first feature for RossentialsEx I thought of shouldn’t take long to implement.

Well yes, but actually no. It does, but it doesn’t include the game. prefix and doesn’t handle spaces in names the way you should when referring to it in scripts. Plus my plugin can do it to multiple instances at once!
