[h2]Simple Addon Framework[/h2]
Simple Addon Framework (SAF for short) is a lightweight base for creating small addons with (addons that only need to be ran at start-time (e.g. tips, addons with hooks, etc))
For example, if you wanted to send a message to everybody when someone is killed, you’d have to make a new folder structure (lua/autorun/) to get your addon to run. Simple Addon Framework does that for you.
There is one folder called saf_addons in which you drag all your LUA files to. Then, you simply create functions as if they were hooks (e.g. ADDON:PlayerDeath() or ADDON:PlayerSpawn()), and they will be called as functions rather than using hook.Add.

[li]Easy to set up, just drag into your addons folder.[/li][li]You don’t need to use hook.Add every time[/li][li]Allows addons to be enabled and disabled at run-time.[/li][li]Is ran on the server and client, so it’s easy for HUD’s, etc[/li][li]Super lightweight and easy to edit - I’ve commented most of it[/li][/ul]
