Frameworks Overview

FiveM supports various frameworks that provide structure, tools, and resources for server development. This section covers the most popular frameworks and how to use them effectively.

ESX

The most widely used framework for FiveM, providing a complete roleplay foundation.

QBCore

A modern, modular framework with extensive features for roleplay servers.

Choosing a Framework

When selecting a framework for your FiveM server, consider:

  1. Community Support: Larger communities typically mean more resources and faster support
  2. Documentation: Well-documented frameworks are easier to learn and extend
  3. Performance: Some frameworks are more optimized than others
  4. Features: Different frameworks excel in different areas
  5. Development Activity: Active development means bugs are fixed and features are added

Framework Components

Most FiveM frameworks include:

  • Core Systems: Player management, inventory, jobs, etc.
  • Database Integration: For persistent data storage
  • UI Components: For user interaction
  • Resource Management: For handling server resources
  • API: For extending functionality

Framework Integration

Regardless of which framework you choose, follow these best practices:

  1. Follow Documentation: Use official guides when available
  2. Respect Dependencies: Understand how resources depend on each other
  3. Maintain Compatibility: Test thoroughly when upgrading
  4. Contribute: Report bugs and contribute improvements
  5. Share Knowledge: Document your solutions for others

This section provides guides for the most popular frameworks, but many of the concepts are transferable between frameworks.

Mixing frameworks can cause conflicts. It's generally best to stick with one primary framework for your server.
