What is Roblox?
Roblox is a wildly popular online game platform and game creation system. It was launched in 2006, and just a few years later, over half of U.S. kids under age 16 played Roblox in 2020.
Roblox is not a game itself- instead it's a space where kids can develop or play millions of 3D online games made by other developers. As just one example, Adopt Me!, a pet simulation game where kids purchase and take care of animals, had over 1.6 million concurrent players in April 2020.
Today Roblox is available to download as an Android and Ios app, and is listed as 12+ with Parental Guidance advised. Within the app, users are encouraged to chat, create, collaborate, build, interact, and more. Kids and their friends can also just gather or explore other users' creations.
What coding does Roblox use?
To play and enjoy Roblox you do not have to code. But Roblox can be a great way to learn coding by harnessing your love for the platform to push yourself to learn new coding skills. Once you have mastered core Roblox coding concepts, you’ll be able to bring to life anything you can imagine within the platform including your own games! Roblox uses Lua, a text-based scripting language, as well as C++.
Does Roblox use C ++?
Yes Roblox uses C ++ in addition to Lua. The code that performs computationally intensive operations is written in optimized C++. While game logic and scripts are written in Lua.
Is Roblox coding hard?
Roblox coding is fairly hard for beginners. Most kids and teens have likely not interacted with complex coding environments like Roblox Studio before, which has two big aspects to it: building and scripting. If your child is new to coding, we'd recommend learning Scratch coding and Minecraft coding first.
Get Started with Roblox Coding
We are excited to announce a new way of learning how to get started on Roblox coding. Instead of waiting for several days to take the live intro class, you can start now by learning with an AI Coach and going through this tutorial together.
Install Roblox Studio
Now let's get started with installing Roblox Studio. Roblox & Roblox Studio requires relatively powerful computers to achieve good performance. The following system specifications ensure that it runs smoothly:
- Windows – Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 10, or Windows 11. For Windows 10 or earlier, you also need Internet Explorer 11 or higher and the latest version of WebView2*. For Windows 8/8.1, you need to run Roblox in Desktop Mode, as Metro Mode isn't supported.
- macOS – macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) and above.
For more detailed requirements, check out Roblox Studio documentation.
Watch the video below for step by step instructions on how to install Roblox Studio.
Throughout this tutorial, you will see this AI Coach Window. Click on Get a hint or Ask a question, to ask AI Coach a question. If you are done, click on "yes, I am done!", so the AI Coach knows that you are ready for the next step.
