Fork, build, and run your own version

Back to Engine repository.

Fork the repository on GitHub, then replace YOUR_ACCOUNT below:

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_ACCOUNT/engine.git
cd engine/Engine
git switch -c my-engine-change
rustup show active-toolchain
cargo install cargo-deny --locked --version 0.20.2
cargo xtask doctor
cargo xtask build
cargo xtask run project-manager

Rustup selects the repository-pinned toolchain in Engine/. doctor checks required tools, repository files, dependency policy, and gameplay toolchain availability. build builds the bundled Luau host and the workspace. The last command builds the editor, launches the native project manager, and lets you create or import a project and open the editor.

For a distributable optimized build:

cargo xtask build --profile distribution

The task runner accepts dev, dev-fast, release, and distribution profiles. Keep project files and persistent data compatible unless your change includes an explicit migration.
