Scratch-Blocks General Question

Hello,

I'm a developer playing with the open-sourced 3.0 projects: scratch-blocks/vm/render. I had a general question: is scratch-blocks meant to function properly on mobile? Or are there custom native clients planned for this?

I ask because I'm seeing issues with the current demos on iPad (Safari with latest iOS) around basic toolbar (flyout) usage. The menus freeze up almost instantly on iPad. For example:
https://utils.asun.co/scratch-blocks/tests/vertical_playground.html
http://llk.github.io/scratch-vm/#
No console errors.

I was about to go and post this on the GitHub Scratch-Blocks Issues but realized I'm not sure about the question above (meaning if the web stack version is meant to run on iPads)… and so I wanted to verify that here first.

I'm also wondering if this is the right place to be posting this… I could not find any other forums around Scratch-Blocks (a-la the google group for Blockly). Is there another place besides here and GitHub Issues for Scratch-Blocks development chat?

Sincerely,

MMZ

Just to follow up: poking around more on the scratch-blocks known issues page it seemed clear iOS was a target, so I posted the issue there.

Definitely feel free to post stuff like this here, it's the right place – and thanks for posting an issue on scratch-blocks!
