I wrote a text-based Scratch project editor, called tosh.

Try it now!

Please:
  • Use it
  • Give constructive feedback, via forums/email/twitter/github/whatever
  • Comment on/love the Scratch project (can we maybe get it featured?)
  • Make projects with it, share them with the tag “tosh”, add them to the studio
  • Say nice things
  • Read the blog post

Open-source version to follow, since a couple of people have already expressed interest in modding. (Also I'd like to accept PRs!) It'll be 3-clause BSD licensed; probably I'll release the source tomorrow or next week.

Please use this thread to talk about tosh, tosh mods (unless they get super-big), programming languages, that sort of interesting thing. Please don't spam memes/quotes/irrelevant things here; I don't want this thread to get closed like the last one was! Irrelevant posts will be silently deleted.

“tosh on”

Performance suggestions:
  • Add caching headers for assets. You'll save some money on bandwidth!
  • Optimize images (you should probably run that giant hero image through this)
  • Optimize SVGs on homepage using svgo (online version)

Other than that, you've done pretty well!

Thanks for these! The JPG one in particular is pretty cool. I already ran those SVGs through svgo, as it happens

Could you tell me how to set up appropriate caching headers in nginx? Possibly through a different medium than this one

Yay! It sort of works on iPad. Why didn't you just report the old topic though?

Maybe you should make the “feedback” button bigger? It looks a little pixelated on my screen

Because I wanted a new one.

tosh is not supported on iPad, there's no way to save!

Is it a good idea to host a website if you don't have unlimited broadband?

You should add cache busters to your assets, either by appending a version number query string or just naming the files with a hash in your build process.

Yeah. That's because I haven't open-sourced the repo yet

One year? Does that mean that if blob8108 decides to update an image then people have to wait one year before the cache gets deleted and the image is updated??

Adding cache busters would let him “bust the caches” if he decides to update a file.

Are script comments not supported?

No, sorry. That's on the wishlist

That page shows up blank for me.

Ok. Tosh is great otherwise!
