Tabs

The tabbed panel supports multiple content types, colors, and custom icons. Each tab can be customized independently. Remove any tab you do not want by deleting its entry from the Tabs.tabs array.

Tab configuration properties:

Property	Type	Required	Description
id	string	✓	Unique identifier for the tab
label	string	✓	Display name in the tab header
icon	string		Built-in icon name (see below) or omit for default
iconSvg	string		Custom SVG markup (overrides icon if provided)
color	hex		Tab accent color; inherits --accent if omitted
colorRGB	string		RGB breakdown of color (e.g., '114, 53, 255')
content	array	✓	Array of items (plain text, objects, or empty for auto-populate)

Built-in icons: star, shield, users, gamepad2, question, info, settings, book, map

Plain text list — rules, controls, updates:

{
  id: 'rules',
  label: 'Rules',
  icon: 'shield',
  color: '#ef4444',
  colorRGB: '239, 68, 68',
  content: [
    'No RDM (Random Deathmatch).',
    'Stay in character.',
    'Respect all players.'
  ]
}

Staff roster — names, roles, with optional avatars:

{
  id: 'staff',
  label: 'Staff',
  icon: 'users',
  color: '#f59e0b',
  colorRGB: '245, 158, 11',
  content: [
    { name: 'Pixel', role: 'Owner', image: 'https://github.com/CodeMeAPixel.png' },
    { name: 'Alex',  role: 'Admin', image: '' },  // Omit image for placeholder
  ]
}

Custom SVG icon:

{
  id: 'customs',
  label: 'Customization',
  iconSvg: '<svg width="14" height="14" viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill="none" stroke="currentColor" stroke-width="2"><circle cx="12" cy="12" r="1"/></svg>',
  color: '#8b5cf6',
  colorRGB: '139, 92, 246',
  content: [ 'Item 1', 'Item 2' ]
}

Auto-populated Resources tab — leave content empty and set id: 'resources':

{
  id: 'resources',
  label: 'Resources',
  icon: 'book',
  content: []  // Automatically filled from FiveM loading logs at runtime
}

Music Player

The now-playing section is located in the left panel below the progress bar. It displays:

• Animated equalizer bars — reflect playing/paused state
• Track name — auto-parsed from filename, with camelCase handling (e.g., MyTrack_Name → "My Track Name")
• Scrolling marquee — long names auto-scroll; short names remain static
• Track counter — shows x / y for playlists (e.g., 2 / 5)
• Playback controls — play/pause (larger button), previous, next (when playlist has 2+ tracks)
• Volume slider — always visible with speaker icon; icon changes based on level (muted/low/high)

Configure audio:

Media: {
  audioFile: {
    src:    'https://embrly.ca/yourspace/track1.mp3/raw',
    title:  'Born For This',     // optional; auto-derived from filename if omitted
    artist: 'The Score',         // optional
    cover:  'https://...',       // optional; not displayed in current UI but reserved for future
  },
  audioPlaylist: [
    { src: 'https://embrly.ca/yourspace/track2.mp3/raw', title: 'Unstoppable', artist: 'Sia' },
    // Or just a string: 'https://embrly.ca/yourspace/track3.mp3/raw'
  ],
},

Social Links

The social section is located in the left panel below the music player. It displays a grid of branded icon buttons for easy access to your community.

Configure social links:

Social: {
  enabled: true,
  links: [
    { platform: 'discord', label: 'Discord',  url: 'https://discord.gg/abc123' },
    { platform: 'website', label: 'Website',  url: 'https://myserver.com' },
    { platform: 'store',   label: 'Store',    url: 'https://shop.myserver.com' },
    { platform: 'github',  label: 'GitHub',   url: 'https://github.com/myorg' },
    { platform: 'youtube', label: 'YouTube',  url: 'https://youtube.com/@myorg' },
  ],
},

Supported platforms (each with its own brand icon): discord, twitter, youtube, twitch, tiktok, instagram, website, store, github

Media

Place files in the media/ directory or use external URLs. External URLs are strongly recommended for videos and large audio files to avoid inflating download size for every player.

Media: {
  backgroundVideo: 'https://embrly.ca/yours/video.mp4/raw',     // External or 'media/video.mp4'
  backgroundImage: 'https://embrly.ca/yours/image.jpg',     // External or 'media/image.jpg'
  audioFile:       'https://embrly.ca/yours/track.mp3',     // External or 'media/track.mp3'
  audioPlaylist:   [                                             // Mixed external & local paths
    'https://embrly.ca/yours/track1.mp3',
    'media/track2.mp3',
  ], 
},

Why use external URLs?

• Local files are bundled with the resource and downloaded by every client
• A 100 MB video means +100 MB per player download time
• External URLs stream directly from your host (CDN) without counting against resource size
• Recommended host: embrly.ca — sign up, upload files, append /raw to the share link (only needed for videos, gifs etc)

Supported formats:

Type	Formats
Audio	MP3, WAV, OGG, M4A
Video	MP4 (H.264)
Image	JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF

Building from Source

Requires Bun or Node + npm.

bun install
bun run build

Output is written to build/app.js. The config.js and media/ folder are not affected by the build.
