# Resources
## Overview
REDDEV Development Tablet is the central REDDEV in-game tablet for creator tools, administration tools, reports, weather controls, runtime pages, optional apps, and SQL/JSON persistence.
## Features
* REDDEV-styled tablet shell with app icons, wallpaper, scaling, theme, idle fade, and tablet animation support.
* Creator apps for blips, stashes, safezones, peds, and supported optional creator resources.
* Administration console with player tools, inventory tools, vehicle tools, reports, weather, resources, and activity history.
* Optional app ecosystem for REDDEV Music, Drug Creator, Garage Creator, Door Creator, and future REDDEV apps.
* Runtime tablet pages for player-facing menus.
* Framework-aware QBCore, Qbox, ESX, and standalone support.
* Inventory image path support for common inventories.
* Target support for ox\_target, qb-target, and standalone floating text.

## Dependencies
* No hard manifest dependency was found.
* `oxmysql` is recommended when `Config.Storage = 'sql'`.
* A supported framework is auto-detected or configured through `Config.Framework`.
* Optional target resources are auto-detected or configured through `Config.Target`.
* Optional weather resources checked include `qb-weathersync`, `Renewed-Weathersync`, `cd_easytime`, and `vSync`.
* Optional `screenshot-basic` is referenced by screenshot support in source scan.
## Installation
* Place `reddev_devtablet` in `resources/[Reddev-Scripts]/reddev_devtablet`.
* Add ACE permissions or configure framework groups for admin access.
* Add the `devtablet` item using `install/qbcore_item.lua` or `install/ox_inventory_item.lua` if players should open it from inventory.
* Copy `web/assets/items/devtablet.png` into your inventory image folder if needed.
* Import `install/reddev_devtablet.sql` for SQL persistence.
* Import `install/reddev_garage_system.sql` if using the complete REDDEV garage metadata system.
## Server.cfg Ensure Order
```cfg
ensure oxmysql
ensure reddev_devtablet
```
## Configuration
* `config.lua` controls debug, tablet item, open commands, framework, target, admin access, inventory image paths, weather resources, storage, garage metadata, safezone/ped/garage builder values, vehicle keys, tablet animation, and data files.
* `Config.Framework = 'auto'` supports auto, qbcore, qbox, esx, and standalone.
* `Config.Target = 'auto'` supports auto, ox\_target, qb-target, and standalone.
* `Config.Storage = 'sql'` uses oxmysql when available and falls back to JSON.
* Data fallback files live under `data/*.json`.
## Commands
* `/devtablet` toggles the tablet.
* `/reddevtools` toggles the tablet.
* `/rddevtest` refreshes runtime data and opens the tablet for testing.
* `/noclip` toggles admin noclip through the admin shortcut path.
* `/reddevunstuck`, `/rdunstuck`, and `/reddevreset` release NUI focus, cameras, frozen movement, collision, invisible alpha, tasks, and disabled controls.
* `/staffchat` sends staff chat.
* `/a` sends staff chat.
* `/report` submits a player report.
* Key-mapped commands include `+reddev_tablet`, `+reddev_duty`, `+reddev_quick`, `+reddev_noclip`, `+reddev_waypoint`, `+reddev_heal`, `+reddev_revive`, and `+reddev_delete_vehicle`.
Public exports detected:
* `RegisterApp`
* `OpenRuntimeTabletPage`
Public/admin events detected:
* None documented as customer/admin entry points.
## Items
* `devtablet` is the default tablet item.
* Ready-to-paste item files are `install/qbcore_item.lua` and `install/ox_inventory_item.lua`.
## Permissions
* ACE admin access is enabled by `Config.AdminWithAce = true`.
* Detected ACE permissions include `reddev_admin.open`, `command`, `admin`, and `god`.
* Framework admin groups default to `admin`, `god`, and `mod`.
* Specific licenses can be whitelisted in `Config.AdminWithLicense`.
* Specific identifiers can be whitelisted in `Config.AdminWithIdentifier`.
## Inventory Support
* Inventory image paths are configured for `codem-inventory`, `ox_inventory`, `qb-inventory`, `lj-inventory`, `ps-inventory`, and `qs-inventory`.
* Source scan also detected `origen_inventory` references.
## Framework Support
* QBCore.
* Qbox.
* ESX.
* Standalone fallback.
## Target Support
* ox\_target.
* qb-target.
* Standalone floating text.
## Database or SQL Setup
* SQL files: `install/reddev_devtablet.sql` and `install/reddev_garage_system.sql`.
* `Config.SqlTable` defaults to `reddev_devtablet_data`.
* `Config.GarageMetaTable` defaults to `reddev_garage_vehicle_meta`.
* `Config.GaragePrivateTable` defaults to `player_priv_garages`.
* When SQL is unavailable, the tablet falls back to JSON files under `data/`.
## Troubleshooting
* If admin tools are locked, confirm ACE permissions or `Config.AdminAllowedGroups`.
* If the tablet item does not open the UI, confirm `devtablet` exists in the active inventory item file.
* If data is not persisting, start `oxmysql` before `reddev_devtablet` or check JSON fallback files.
* If a player is stuck in NUI/camera/frozen state, run `/reddevunstuck`, `/rdunstuck`, or `/reddevreset`.
* If optional app icons are missing, confirm the optional resource is started and restart the tablet.
## FAQ
* **Do optional apps hard-crash when missing?** No. The plugin docs state optional apps hide when stopped or missing.
* **Can I run without SQL?** Yes, but SQL is recommended. JSON fallback is present.
* **How do other resources register apps?** Use `exports['reddev_devtablet']:RegisterApp({...})`.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://reddev-development.gitbook.io/reddev-development-docs/reddev_devtablet.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
