Roblox is an online platform for games and other interactive experiences created by its developer community. David Baszucki and Erik Cassel founded the company in 2004. Roblox operates from its headquarters in San Mateo, California. Users can discover and play experiences built by other people, while creators use the platform to reach an audience. [Roblox company information](https://en.help.Roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/203313370-Roblox-Company-Information).
Roblox Studio provides the creation tools. Developers can build three-dimensional environments, write scripts, test behaviour and publish their work from the same application. Studio supports collaborative development and testing for different devices. The business therefore combines the consumer platform with development software and the underlying systems that run creators’ experiences. Its library reflects many separate developers’ work rather than a single game designed entirely by Roblox itself. [Roblox Studio documentation](https://create.Roblox.com/docs/studio).
