Plugins To Build
Ideas for plugins that might still be worth making.
We look at what developers are asking for, what already exists, and what the platform actually lets you build.
Currently looking at Roblox.

How it works
Every idea on this site goes through the same checks. Most do not make it all the way through, and that is fine.
- 01
Find requests
Feature requests and problems developers keep bringing up.
- 02
Group similar problems
Requests that describe the same underlying problem get grouped together.
- 03
Check existing plugins
We search the Creator Store for things that already solve it.
- 04
Check Studio
We look at Roblox's APIs to see if a plugin could actually do the job.
- 05
Keep or reject it
Ideas that are too small, already solved, or not possible get dropped.
- 06
Look again
For what is left, we search specifically for competitors before taking it seriously.
Most ideas get dropped somewhere in this process. That is kind of the point.
