Overview
alt:V is a multiplayer client for Grand Theft Auto V that enables customized, community-driven gameplay. It runs on dedicated servers and keeps player states synchronized to provide stable sessions for everyone involved. Users can join friends and try out many different game modes built to suit various play styles.
Key features

- JavaScript (and TypeScript via transpilation) is also available for rapid prototyping and scripting.
Community and customization
The project encourages collaboration between players and creators. Community-made assets, game modes, and tools are shared freely, letting groups tailor servers to their preferred experiences.
