The public repository of Lua, text, and config extensions for Garry's Mod, a physics sandbox game built on a modified version of Valve's Source Engine. The binary game sources are not public, but this repo contains all the scriptable game logic and welcomes community pull requests.

Use cases

• contribute Lua code or fixes to Garry's Mod
• browse the game's Lua source to learn GMod Lua scripting
• develop addons that hook into Garry's Mod's Lua API
• report or track game bugs and feature requests
• contribute translations for the game
• preview upcoming changes on the dev branch

When to choose

• you want to read or contribute to the actual Lua codebase of Garry's Mod
• you are a GMod addon developer needing the authoritative game-side Lua sources
• you want to follow or test upcoming game updates

When to avoid

• you want the full game binary source code - only Lua/config extensions are public
• you want to build a standalone game from scratch on Source
• you need a general-purpose game engine rather than a specific game's scripts
