Host your projects/servers
Host your projects/servers
From signing in with Steam to a fully-configured s&box server running on Emrald.
Hosting a server on Emrald is built around three nested concepts:
- Project — a workspace for one community, bound to a single gamemode (e.g. DarkRP, Sandbox).
- Environment — every project has three fixed environments (
Production,Staging,Development) that hold the actual configuration. - Server — a dedicated s&box server instance that lives inside one environment and pulls its config from there.
