It's awful, but also free.

Nothing. Awful is free.

Awful is an all-in-one scripting solution & marketplace. Awful Framework is an openly documented free to use Lua SDK for routine / bot development. It requires an unlocker to use, but it's designed to be unlocker-agnostic. If you write code on one platform and stick to using only the awful API, that code should work 1:1 between all supported platforms. We currently support 2 platforms, with more on the way. Awful Platform, consisting of web app and loader, facilitates pretty much everything else between authentication, a shop with multiple payment processing options, subscription management, CI/CD to encrypt, compress, and host your code on commit, a UI for modularizing the files in your project into any combination of products you want to post on the marketplace, and secure, authenticated distribution of that code to users.

You can get started with awful by signing up for a free account. Once you're in, you can use all of the features we provide right away. Discord community access is granted once you've spent at least $1 on the website, and is located at the top right corner of the dashboard.

We follow industry best practices for data security and authentication, and use the latest encryption standards to keep your data safe. Raw source code is never stored on our servers, but instead as an encrypted buffer ready to be transmitted to users via the loader.

Short answer: Yes. Long answer: Awful does not make any changes outside of its own runtime environment, and should therefore not interfere with other tools. Our infrastructure is also capable of efficiently loading existing Lua projects, even if they were not written with awful in mind.
