+**Roblox** is an online platform and [Game Creation](/wiki/Game_Creation) system where users program and play games created by other users. Launched in 2006, it has grown into a vast [Virtual World](/wiki/Virtual_World) empowering creators of all ages to share their digital [Experiences](/wiki/Experience) and connect through play across various devices, including [PC](/wiki/PC), [Mobile](/wiki/Mobile) phones, and [Console](/wiki/Console)s. The platform emphasizes [User Content](/wiki/User_Content), allowing its community to shape its diverse ecosystem of games and social interactions.
+## History
+Roblox was founded by [David Baszucki](/wiki/David_Baszucki) and [Erik Cassel](/wiki/Erik_Cassel) in 2004 under the initial name "DynaBlocks." It officially launched as Roblox in 2006. Initially, the platform focused on physics-based simulations and educational games, aiming to provide a virtual environment where users could build and interact. Over the years, Roblox saw significant growth, expanding its user base and [Developer](/wiki/Developer) community, notably with the introduction of its mobile application and the [Developer Exchange Program](/wiki/Developer_Exchange_Program) (DevEx), which allowed creators to convert earned [Robux](/wiki/Robux) into real-world currency.
+## Core Platform and Technology
+The core of Roblox's creation capabilities lies within [Roblox Studio](/wiki/Roblox_Studio), a free [Integrated Development Environment](/wiki/IDE) that allows users to design, build, and publish their own games and virtual worlds. Developers utilize the [Lua](/wiki/Lua) [Programming Language](/wiki/Programming) to script game logic, create interactive elements, and manage game mechanics. This accessible [Development](/wiki/Development) environment has fostered a massive amount of [User-generated Content](/wiki/User_generated_Content), making Roblox a unique example of a platform driven by its community. The platform's robust [Cloud Infrastructure](/wiki/Cloud_Infrastructure) supports millions of concurrent users globally, facilitating seamless cross-platform play.
