User:Aleksiki2000/Wiki and Devhub

The Roblox Developer Hub has changed a lot. This page contains some info about the previous iterations.

You can browse the old sites yourself using the provided links. Note that the archived pages may have broken features, such as missing images.

The links point to the Tutorial pages, which are generally the most interesting ones. Thanks to the Wayback Machine for making this possible.

The Beginning
One of the earliest iterations available, from 2008. It is useful for learning how games were made back then, it's very different. The API Reference has some info about ancient features that have been removed over a decade ago, such as HtmlService.

New Design
Later versions of the wiki used the 'Vector' skin. Our example is from 2015. This is the last one to have website tutorials. For some reason the link to main page doesn't work in the archive, so you have to type Special:RobloxLandingPage to the end of the URL. (This applies to all wiki archives from now on.)

New Tutorials
The 'Tutorials' page is replaced by the 'AllTutorials' page. The guides are now sorted by difficulty and new 'Lessons' have been added for starters.

Difficulty Icons
The tutorials now have difficulty icons. The starter tutorials are replaced again with newer ones. For some reason the 'Scripting Book' isn't shown on this page, but you can access it by pasting Scripting_Book to the end of the URL.

More Tutorials
The look of the page is adjusted and more tutorials are added, notably videos. Our snapshot is from 2017. Note the new Studio icon.

See it yourself (for some reason the difficulty icons sometimes fail to load properly)

Blue
All links are now blue, instead of purple. We're now in late 2017.

Learn Roblox
The 'AllTutorials' page is scrapped and replaced with a new 'Learn Roblox' page. Comes with yet another new starter guide.

Retired Wiki
In 2018, the wiki was replaced with the Developer Hub. The final version of the wiki was temporarily available at wiki-origin.roblox.com. Unfortunately the Wayback Machine hasn't archived every page.

See it yourself (The layout is a bit broken, maybe the CSS wasn't properly archived or something.)

Developer Hub
The replacement for the wiki. The initial version was located on robloxdev.com.

Updated Hub
The hub was moved to developer.roblox.com. Notable changes include the removal of code samples from the 'Learn Roblox' page, and the addition of the 'Resources' page.

Education Split
At some point the education tutorials were moved to education.roblox.com. This is basically the current Devhub.
