Game framework for Roblox (Alpha)

Knit

Knit is a lightweight framework for Roblox that simplifies communication between core parts of your game and seamlessly bridges the gap between the server and the client.

Example

Here is a simple and fully-working example where a PointsService is created server-side and lets the client access points from the service. No RemoteFunctions or RemoteEvents have to be made; those are handled internally by Knit.

Server:

local Knit = require(game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Knit)

-- Create a PointsService:
local PointsService = Knit.CreateService {
	Name = "PointsService";
	Client = {};
}

-- Expose an endpoint that the client can invoke:
function PointsService.Client:GetPoints(player)
	return 10
end

Knit.Start()

Client:

local Knit = require(game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage").Knit)

local MyController = Knit.CreateController {
	Name = "MyController";
}

function MyController:KnitStart()
	-- Fetch points from the server-side PointsService:
	local PointsService = Knit.GetService("PointsService")
	local points = PointsService:GetPoints()
	print("Points", points)
end

Knit.Start()
