I’m building a node-based visual scripting IDE for Roblox.
It is officially live now! You can check it out for FREE on itch.io here: Instance IDE.
So I’m studying software development and I've been pouring everything into Instance IDE for my college portfolio, which is a standalone desktop app that talks directly to Roblox Studio in real-time to compile node-based visual logic into clean, zero-overhead native Luau. I built this to help new users grasp game logic easily while giving experienced devs a much faster workflow, so it currently features 77 different nodes covering the core logic, plus a dedicated Raw node where you can inject your own pure Luau code if a specific function doesn't exist yet. I'm still fighting some bugs with the Creator Store permissions to finalize the bridge, but I'm getting ready to drop the first early access build soon. Right now I'm honestly just a bit nervous and looking for raw feedback from actual devs to see if I'm on the right track.
