Your First Project

Import an Existing Server

If you already have a FiveM or RedM server:

  1. Click Import Project on the dashboard
  2. Navigate to your server-data folder
  3. CfxKit scans your resources and detects your framework
  4. Your project opens in the IDE with all files accessible

CfxKit detects:

  • Framework: QBCore, ESX, QBox, VORP, or custom
  • Resources: All enabled resources from server.cfg
  • Database: MySQL connection from your config

Create a New Project

Starting fresh:

  1. Click New Project
  2. Game: Choose FiveM or RedM
  3. Framework: Pick a template:
    • QBCore — Most popular FiveM framework
    • ESX — Classic FiveM framework
    • QBox — Modern QBCore fork
    • VORP — RedM framework
    • Blank — Empty server-data
  4. Location: Choose where to create the project
  5. Click Create — CfxKit sets up the folder structure and base files

Project Structure

After creating or importing, your project looks like:

server-data/
├── .cfxkit/           # CfxKit project config
│   └── rules.md       # AI rules for your project
├── resources/          # Your server resources
├── server.cfg          # Server configuration
└── ...
