• [Adding Config saving and loading]

Example :

local Toggles = {}
local Sliders = {}
local Textboxes = {}

local ConfigName = "Test"
local function saveConfig(cfgName)
    if isfile(string.format("%s.json",cfgName)) then
        local Config = game:GetService("HttpService"):JSONDecode(readfile(string.format("%s.json",cfgName)))
        local Data = {}
        table.foreach(Toggles,function(i,v)
            Data[i] = v:GetState()
        end)
        table.foreach(Sliders,function(i,v)
            Data[i] = v.Value
        end)
        table.foreach(Textboxes,function(i,v)
            Data[i] = v:GetText()
        end)
        table.foreach(Data,function(x,y)
            warn(x,y)
        end)
        writefile(string.format("%s.json",cfgName), game:GetService("HttpService"):JSONEncode(Data))
    else
        writefile(string.format("%s.json",cfgName), game:GetService("HttpService"):JSONEncode({}))
        local Config = game:GetService("HttpService"):JSONDecode(readfile(string.format("%s.json",cfgName)))
        local Data = {}
        table.foreach(Toggles,function(i,v)
            Data[i] = v:GetState()
        end)
        table.foreach(Sliders,function(i,v)
            Data[i] = v.Value
        end)
        table.foreach(Textboxes,function(i,v)
            Data[i] = v:GetText()
        end)
        table.foreach(Data,function(x,y)
            warn(x,y)
        end)
        writefile(string.format("%s.json",cfgName), game:GetService("HttpService"):JSONEncode(Data))
    end
end
local function loadConfig(cfgName)
    if isfile(string.format("%s.json",cfgName)) then
        local Config = game:GetService("HttpService"):JSONDecode(readfile(string.format("%s.json",cfgName)))
        table.foreach(Config,function(i,v)
            if typeof(v) == "boolean" then
                Toggles[i]:SetState(v)
            end
        end)
    end
end

Since its not added yet each time i want to create a toggle/textbox/slider i say

    Text = "Text Box",
    Callback = function(value)
        print(value)
    end,
    Type = "Default",
    ClearOnFocus = false
})

or

    Text = "Slider",
    Callback = function(value)
        Sliders["Slider"].Value = value
        print("Enabled:", value)
    end,
    Min = 0,
    Max = 123789,
    Def = 0
})```

or 
```Toggles["Toggle"] = MainTab.Toggle({
    Text = "Toggle",
    Callback = function(value)
        print("Enabled:", value)
    end,
    Enabled = true
})

I was unable to complete like loading the config for sliders or textboxes (because its not added as a method and rewriting the source would take too much work due to you probably updating it (because of the notify system))

Loading is not done yet im making it now (its easy thanks to you adding SetState, SetText etc.)

the script (and possibly all of my scripts) will probably be discontinued. i haven't made any updates in a few months.

anyway, the notify thing will most likely never be finished so don't worry about that. (same goes with themes)

the reason i didn't implement configs directly into the ui library is cuz it would be sorta complicated. the ui library system itself is already quite messy. you would have to assign each ui element to a variable with some sort of name or id or whatever. just seems complicated so i never did it. it's never been a priority for me so i never put any thought into how it would work.

i typically use ConfigManager.lua (which can be found in this repo) in my scripts. the only problem is the fact that the states/text/values/etc don't update to the current config. it only changes it to the config's values while the ui loads (because you can use the Default value). a workaround for this problem would be to reload the ui with the config's values so that it applies to the ui. (kinda sucks tho)

if you want to, you could try to figure out how to integrate configs into the script and make a pull request and i might merge it.
