<Warning>
  By submitting your app on our Discord Server, you agree that you've read and will follow these Standards and Guidelines.
</Warning>

## Overview

These guidelines ensure all Exe 6 apps maintain high quality, safety, and provide value to the community. All app developers must follow these rules.

***

## Community Standards

<Card title="Roblox Community Standards" icon="shield-check" href="https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/203313410-Roblox-Community-Standards">
  Your app must comply with Roblox's Community Standards
</Card>

### Platform Compliance

<Check>
  Your app **must** be approved by Roblox and follow their Community Standards. Apps violating Roblox's rules will be rejected.
</Check>

Review Roblox's guidelines for:

* Appropriate content
* User safety
* Privacy protection
* Intellectual property
* Community behavior

### Community Feedback

<Info>
  The insights, feedback, and comments of the community towards your app will be heavily considered.
</Info>

**Examples of community concerns:**

## Technical Requirements

### Unique Value Proposition

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Original Features" icon="lightbulb">

</Warning>

### Component Replacements

  Avoid replacing core Exe 6 components whenever possible.

  **Why?**

  </Step>

  <Step title="Be Non-Disruptive">
    Must not interfere with normal gameplay or Exe 6 operations
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Check>
  Ensure your app works and functions properly. Otherwise, it will not be accepted.
</Check>

### Scope & Integration

  Your app must not be disruptive to the gameplay and must only orbit around Exe 6.
</Warning>
