1. Extract this resource into your resources/ folder
   Example:

   resources/[yourfolder]/DaFirework
   

2. Add it to your server.cfg:

   ensure DaFirework

3. (Optional)
   If your anti-cheat monitors explosion events, make sure to whitelist this resource.
   The script uses client-side sound effects and particle explosions purely for visuals.
   No damage or gameplay impact occurs.

All settings are located in config.lua:

• Works standalone — no dependency on ESX or QBCore.
• If you use ESX/QBCore notifications, you can replace the default notify function:

  Config.Notify = function(message)
      TriggerEvent('esx:showNotification', message)
  end

• Fireworks are handled client-side for smooth visuals and to prevent desync.
• The server manages timing, countdowns, and milestone notifications.
