studs.gg vs Roblox Build
Both make a Roblox game from a prompt and publish it without Roblox Studio, on a phone. Roblox Build is Roblox's own tool, a tab in the Roblox mobile app, in a public alpha for age-checked users in New Zealand, Serbia and Singapore. studs.gg works in any phone, tablet or computer browser, and gives you a regular Roblox place you can also open in Studio.
