I have been active on this suggestion thread which has been open for over 5 years now with many various supporters along the way. The ST has openly said it is not rejected, yet there has been no visible progress (to my knowledge) on the implementation of USB Gamepad support. A few supporters and I would like to take things into our own hands and make a pull request to the Scratch GitHub for this feature. We are unsure how to proceed and would like some help/advice on the matter. We wouldn't have to start from scratch (haha) because there are already people who have made their own open-source extensions for this. (One of them is on TurboWarp)

To be clear! This is NOT button mapping. The suggestion is to have a separate group of blocks (as a Scratch extension) with analog and rumble support!!

Advertising “button mapping” is gonna be later removed by ST

Welcome to the forums!
Java is a bit different then JavaScript, which is what Scratch uses

There's no place like 127.0.0.1

Why would it get removed? Only advertising extensions is banned.

Because “button mapping” built-in Scratch is a userscript.

It os, if you look at it from a mile away and squint.
Simply saying "button mapping* can refer to anytjing- am I button mapping CS:2?
Can I not link any site I work on, I wrote their code.
A user script references something that effects Scratch in some way in this case.

This topic is about developing a Nintendo Switch extension, not a XBOX one.

Did you just tell the OP what their topic is about?
It's for general controller support, which is easy wirb the right lib.

While I can't help programming myself, and I don't pretend to understand the Gamepad API built into some web browsers, here is an article that may be able to help somewhat: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Gamepad_API/Using_the_Gamepad_API

Just be warned: the Gamepad API isn't fully supported on any major browser.

Forum tips:
Don't title topics something like “HELP ME!!!”. It's not helpful, and won't get you as many responses.
Don't post in topics where the latest post is over ~2 months old, unless you have something critical to add. Especially in topics that are several years old- it isn't helpful, and is known as necroposting.
Don't post unrelated things in topics, including questions of your own. Make a new topic for your questions.
You can use the

 [code] and [/code]

tags to show other users how to format something that Scratch would otherwise format.
You can use the

 [color=color name or hexadecimal value here] and [/color]

tags to color text.

I know that I and a (I think?) few others plan to learn JavaScript over the summer and get the ball rolling then. Not much time available for anything like this during school…

Thanks!! We were thinking about using something similar to what this website uses. Is that the same thing?

After I finish making a few ads IRL I could get a pretty good start on it.
As much as I hate front end development.
