Framework Compatibility

LastMenu is framework-agnostic: it has zero dependencies on ESX, QBCore, or ox_lib. All interactions go through the public exports API.

Compatibility matrix

Feature	ox_lib	ESX (legacy + v2)	QBCore / QBox
Context menu replacement	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in
Input dialog replacement	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in
Notification replacement	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in
Alert / confirm dialog	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in
Radial menu	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in
Progress bar	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in	✅ Drop-in
Target system	⚠️ Parallel	⚠️ Parallel	✅ Native

⚠️ Parallel — ox_target and ESX’s native targeting can coexist with LastMenu’s target system without conflict, but register zones in only one system per resource to avoid duplicate action menus.

Migration snippets

From ox_lib → LastMenu

-- ox_lib context menu
lib.showContext('my_menu')

-- LastMenu
exports.LastMenu:context(function(menu)
    menu:title("My Menu")
    menu:button("Action", { cb = function() end })
end)

-- ox_lib input dialog (blocking)
local result = lib.inputDialog("Title", { { type = "input", label = "Name" } })

-- LastMenu (blocking — must be inside Citizen.CreateThread)
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
    local values = exports.LastMenu:input_async(function(b)
        b:title("Title")
        b:field("Name", {})
        b:confirm_label("OK")
        b:cancel_label("Cancel")
    end)
    if values then print(values[1]) end
end)

-- ox_lib notify
lib.notify({ title = "Info", description = "Hello", type = "inform" })

-- LastMenu
exports.LastMenu:notify(function(n)
    n:title("Info")
    n:message("Hello")
    n:type("info")
end)

---

From ESX → LastMenu

-- ESX menu (legacy)
ESX.UI.Menu.Open("default", GetCurrentResourceName(), "my_menu", { ... })

-- LastMenu
exports.LastMenu:context(function(menu)
    menu:title("My Menu")
    -- add items here
end)

-- ESX input dialog
ESX.UI.Menu.Open("dialog", GetCurrentResourceName(), "input", {
    title = "Name", inputs = { { type = "text", label = "Name" } }
}, function(data, menu) menu.close() end, function(_, menu) menu.close() end)

-- LastMenu
exports.LastMenu:input(function(form)
    form:title("Name")
    form:field("Name", {})
    form:confirm("OK", function(values) print(values[1]) end)
    form:cancel("Cancel")
end)

---

From QBCore → LastMenu

-- QBCore menu
QBCore.Functions.QBCallback("qb-menu:client:openMenu", false, items)

-- LastMenu
exports.LastMenu:context(function(menu)
    menu:title("Menu")
    for _, item in ipairs(items) do
        menu:button(item.header, {
            cb = item.params.event and function()
                TriggerEvent(item.params.event, item.params.args)
            end,
        })
    end
end)

Known incompatibilities

Issue	Affected frameworks	Workaround
ox_target zones and LastMenu target registered on the same entity	ox_lib + LastMenu	Register in one system only per resource
ESX legacy hideUI conflicts with SetNuiFocus(false) on menu close	ESX legacy	Let LastMenu manage NUI focus — do not call hideUI while a LastMenu menu is open
QB-Core’s QBCore.Functions.Progressbar running simultaneously with LastMenu progress	QBCore	Use LastMenu progress exclusively; QB-Core’s bar renders on a different DOM layer and may overlay
