Build from Source

How to build HTML to Roblox from GitHub.

First, you'll need to download the .zip source code. You can do that from here, or from the GitHub repository by clicking the green "Code" button, then "Download ZIP". Both should give you the same .zip source.

Next you have to extract the zip file. You can do this by double clicking the file from your file explorer if you're on a mac, or right click the file if you're on Windows from your file explorer and click "Extract All..." or use a file extractor such as 7zip.

Then navigate into that folder (there might be another folder named the exact same but that's normal), then find a folder called "source". Head into that folder. Next, double click build.bat if you're on Windows. It should then build the .rbxm file for you. The one that you saw in the releases tab earlier, but you made it instead. If you're not on Windows, open up that "source" folder in your terminal of choice. Then run:

rojo build build.project.json -o HTMLToRoblox.rbxm

This command requires that you have "rojo" installed on your system, and in your system's path environment variables.

Congratulations! You should now have a .rbxm file that you can use inside of Roblox Studio. If you want to know how to properly get it installed and/or working, you can head over to the Installation guide.
