Question: Why would you even need to convert Scratch to JS? Are you able to share it as an .exe that way or something?

I have a smooth glide engine, I was thinking about sharing it later today.

Well, an exe file (or .exec for us Linux/Mac peeps) aren't the most portable. They also may contain malicious code. Also, making an sb3 to EXE is kinda hard: turning it into JavaScript (or python) is more portable, more readable, and more ‘safe’ (they may still contain malicious code, but at least you can read it).
You could look more professional (by having JavaScript instead of embedded Scratch Projects) when you share on your website. And JS is supported by many.

Hi, I thought Leopard is very great, but here is just one problem: It's the run without screen refresh. I gave a link so it could convert it to JavaScript ( https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/409601033/ ), but one thing I noticed is that the player keeps on sinking down and that's because “the run without screen refresh” doesn't seem to be working. Could you explain why? Thanks!

well its not just converting to JS it's a whole game library based on scratch made with js.

since it doesn't have to follow scratch's restrictions projects made with leopard can be very flexible and can do crazy things like getting data from the internet and stuff like that

Nice! Maybe we can get the Steam release of AiB…
Will JavaScript work for Steam? Or at least, the way Leopard translates it?

Yes, but you'd have to distribute it as an Electron app, says StackExchange

You can change the speed of your project by editing the index.js file. That should do essentially what you want. Removing “yield”s from the code can also make your project run faster.
