How To Make an OS in Scratch

scratchomaster99

If you want to create an OS in Scratch, You should be here!

Step 1: Logo
Of course you need a logo for your OS! Make it somewhat nice, Not just some text, But with some shapes too!
I recommend you use vector, I don't really use bitmap that much anymore.

Step 2: The Booting Screen
After you created your logo, You need a booting screen!
First make a color for the backdrop, You can choose any color you want.

Copy this script inside the backdrop:

when green flag clicked
switch backdrop to [Boot Screen v]

Then, Put your logo somewhere at the top of the screen.
Put this script inside of the boot logo:

when green flag clicked
go to x: ( Put whatever position you put here. ) y: ( Put whatever position you put here. )
switch costume to [Logo v]

Then create a new sprite, Make it a grey bar.
It should be pretty long but not too high.

Then copy that costume and put a green bar inside of it.
Make it longer and longer until its completely green.

Then, Make this script inside the loading bar:

when green flag clicked
switch costume to [costume1 v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch costume to [costume2 v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch costume to [costume3 v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch costume to [costume4 v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch costume to [costume5 v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch costume to [costume6 v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch costume to [costume7 v]
wait (0.1) secs
switch costume to [costume8 v]
broadcast [DoneLoading v] and wait

That will be the loading script.

Create the app icons.

Then, create a window.

Then a close button.
Then code the icon to do this.

when this sprite clicked
broadcast [Window show v]

On the window sprite, do this:

when I receive [Window show v]
show

when this sprite clicked
broadcast [Close v]

Do this for the window:

when I receive [Close v]
hide

say [YEet] for (2) secs
