New website I'm working on

@jeffreyrb03-gmail said in New website I'm working on:
I’m working on a new block language from scratch (no pun intended) that’s like Scratch but isn’t. It does not use blockly at all or any of the Scratch source, other than scraped SVGs for the blocks. Right now, it is does not work very well, as:- blocks don’t snap
- the Drag & drop is buggy
- you can’t delete blocks
- Running the project doesn’t actually do anything as the blocks aren’t mapped to any code
Right now the website isn’t available to the public so you can’t try it yet.
So, I decided to make this because I was curious if I could recreate Scratch and make it better rather than forking it. Now I know why it’s easier to just fork Scratch like CC and TurboWarp did: because HTML5 drag and drop is so awful. I had to use a library for dragging and it still sucks. And I don’t even have a plan for making the blocks snap. But when I get the blocks snapping, hopefully it’ll get easier and then I just have to make a blocks catalog and some UI improvements.
where can I play it/use it
@dreamsmp_luck btw theres a game called mycopsycosys i think you would like to watch somebody play it lol

@tyller_ oh yeah sometimes putting an invisible HTML element in the middle of a word helps. That site actually isnt blocked and I’ll keep it in mind for file stuff, thank you!
@jeffreyrb03-gmail alright, also if you need to understand some minified code (though ig theres no way more so I can help you more than you could understand yourself) I can possibly help, again not sure how exactly to help with minified code but I can try! Only mentioning this cus I’ve been modding an electron game that is indeed minified to quite a bit of success

@tyller_ Oh ok thx, I’ll ask for help when I need I suppose, im not working with minified stuff anymore

@mod-squadacademy Thank you, I actually saw that already, but I just want to recreate Scratch and make it better. I 'll also give my other reasons for not wanting to fork Scratch or Blockly:
- GitHub is blocked by my school so I can’t build off of anything unless I use my phone which is a major pain in the butt (and I have no other computer to use atm)
- Alot of code requires something like build tools or React which is really annoying. Basically stuff that requires a web server and/or NodeJS, which is I guess “makes your life easier”? It also costs money and if you don’t pay then you have to deal with restrictions on a free platform (which I don’t mind for ones like Glitch but having your project go to sleep in annoying as well). A lot of stuff can usually just be client side and doesn’t even need an entire thing for devs to make client stuff using backend stuff rather than client stuff.
- All this stuff feels like bloatware and/or just not what I’m used to. I can read some normal (and formatted) code, but this is all minified and uses like a million JS prototypes and whatnot. Here’s literally google.com 's source:
Whatever they’re trying to achieve, I could probably do in 10-20 lines. I see no reason at all why they gotta useprototypes andclasses and all this fancy JS stuff. This is literally just the front page of their search engine. They just need to implement a few things.
Blockly’s source (like from its CDN) is like that, and with that, it’s not very usable/editable for me.
@jeffreyrb03-gmail what is the website called?
