Project Explorer

Project Explorer
A project.json viewer for Scratch projects
Check it out!

Project Explorer is a tool/utility/whateveryouwanttocallit that lets you view project.json info of projects.
This currently includes:

Seeing what operating system and Scratch version a project is made in
Sprite info
Block and comment counts, both total and per-sprite
Costume and sound viewing without downloading everything at once (the main purpose this project was made)

What's next? (maybe)

Fix bugs
More code info
2.0 support
Maybe more?

If you want to look at/contribute to this project's terribly messy code, go here.
See the link at the top to visit it, and have fun!

He set it to that I guess.

Asset tab overhaul, with a built-in image viewer and sound support!

Known issue. I don't know how to prevent this (unless I embed the SVG directly but that complicates things).

Full asset name added + view in fullscreen (read: gosoccerboy5's image viewer) button that is not showcased in screenshot.

I think the bug is because there's none of the fonts in the Scratch Paint editor in your website. I think you'd need to add TTFs of all the fonts, edited to use the name of the font that Scratch uses.

I already tried, and it failed. Try making a PR to CST1229/project-explorer if you can get it working.

Fun fact: That was one of the primary reasons this was created (because my PC couldn't handle getting fried by attempting to load your workspace).

Nice stuff - but can you use an input box instead of alert();?

Maybe. It might be time to uncomment that project ID box now…

I like this, especially the ability to view and download images and sound. Do you think you could add the ability to download the .sb3?

Seeing as all you need is the project.json (which it uses), the md5 hashes of the assets (which show when you download an asset, so it has those as well) and the assets themselves (which it also uses), it is technically possible.

Probably not, as that would require me to bundle a zipping library. You can already use something like the sb downloader (which supports sb2 and sb3, despite its name) for that.

I don't use them, I just stuff their URL into an img element which downloads them for me.

yeah. if you used svelte it would've been even easier (tho ive never used vue it might have a bind option too)
