object oriented? i'd usually say it's bad but since it's Scratch with sprites it'd make sense.

object-oriented is the best approach for most things. it is not overly complicated and it lets you model and represent things easily.

did you even read the README.md?

Cool! Looks similar to Boiga.

back on topic!
No fr, functional is the best. Because you get for example this:

function afunction() {}

instead of

private class void afunction() {}

^ the amount of stuff you have to painfully declare yourself, ugh its just bad.

“lack of proper restraints”
unmaintainable, messy, and sluggish code.
It's all just bad.

but “Objects” makes sense with use of sprites.

Cool, you read my opinion, make sure your n ext post is on topic “Write Scratch projects in Python using Gobomatic”

I think you've gotten mixed up. The example you gave was not functional programming; functional programming is a paradigm where programs are constructed by applying and composing functions, and the functions are almost always pure, meaning they have no side-effects on the rest of the program. Languages like Racket, Clojure, and Elixer are functional programming languages. JavaScript, Python, etc. are object-oriented languages.

There also isn't a “best” paradigm, just like there isn't a best programming language; each is good for certain things.

javascript is actually a weird mix between oop and functional programming

Yep, thats the inspiration for this project. Though this project has different goals than boiga.

The new release (1.1.0) is very cool! I'm glad that you've published it to PyPI; it makes everything a lot easier.

2.0.0 is even better. I think the refactor makes a lot of sense.

Bump. I still think these libraries are extremely cool!

I rewrote goboscript and its much better now!
