Code Example

-- Example: QBCore callback pattern
local QBCore = exports['qb-core']:GetCoreObject()

QBCore.Functions.CreateCallback('tutorials:getPlayerJob', function(source, cb)
  local Player = QBCore.Functions.GetPlayer(source)
  if not Player then return cb(nil) end

  cb({
    job = Player.PlayerData.job.name,
    grade = Player.PlayerData.job.grade and Player.PlayerData.job.grade.level or 0,
  })
end)

Tips & Best Practices

• Keep authority on the server: validate inputs before money/database operations.
• Start with one resource/module at a time, then refactor after you verify it works.
• Use callbacks for request/response flows and events for push/UX updates.
• When you run loops, avoid freezes: always yield with Wait() (client/server) and cache hot values.
