The following circle back to the Client-Server model:

ReplicatedFirst:

All context is transferred to the Client first, before any other assets.

ReplicatedStorage:

All context is replicated to the Client & Server—is accessible from both ends.

SeverScriptService:

All content is stored on the Server; this container is primarily used to store Server-sided programs.

ServerStorage:

All content is stored on the Server; this container is used to house important assets, inaccessible from the Client.


The following is pertinent to the Player:

StarterPlayer (StarterPlayer/CharacterScripts):

Houses containers that Instantiate programs; subsequently, all children of this container will be stored under the local Player Object.
