tLib

One NUI menu, one dialog and toast system, one themeable surface, one HUD editor, one HTTP port — and 40 Lua modules reached through a tlib global you never declare.

lua
dependencies { 'tLib' }

shared_scripts {
    '@tLib/imports.lua',
}
lua
exports['tLib']:ShowToast(nil, 'success', 'tLib is running', 'Installed correctly.')

What it is not

  • Not a framework. It detects the framework you already run and normalises what it reports — see access.
  • Not configured in a file. There is no config.lua. Owners set convars in server.cfg — see Convars.
  • Not invisible when it stops. A tLib restart takes its consumers' menus with it; they re-register when it returns — see the lifecycle adapter.

Requirements

RequirementDetail
RuntimeFiveM only. Everything goes through a platform adapter, but FiveM is the only one implemented
InstallThe release zip, not a source checkout — the release carries the built NUI page and server bundle
Load orderensure tLib before any resource that depends on it
FrameworkNone. tLib detects yours; it does not replace it
PortOne, tlib_http_port, default 7777. Every app tLib serves is a mount on it
