Leopard: Edit Scratch projects as JavaScript code

--CHA0S--

It does use that, is that not supported in JavaScript?

I had a similar experience.
And we were able to avoid this by replacing the block that was causing the problem with an alternative block.

when green flag clicked

if <key [ d] pressed?> then
change x by (4)
end
if <key [ a] pressed?> then
change x by (-4)
end
if <key [ w] pressed?> then 

  
change y by (6)

else
if <key [ s] pressed?> then
change y by (-6)
end
end
end

Hey I can't read through all 55 pages so here I am reporting this:

None of the 3D engines I find work. Also in Astral Engine there's a weird glitch that no other extension other than pen can be used but there's not

isn't this basically just turbowarp except using an actual code editor

Yeah but this one you can directly edit and see how it works. It's also quite slower than turbowarp.

I guess

That's right! Translating Scratch to JavaScript is now possible! The tool is called Leopard, and it's available here:

Leopard Website – Go here to convert your projects!

Who needs this?
If you know Scratch and want to learn JavaScript, Leopard is made for you. It's the perfect transition tool. Leopard also allows you to convert your existing Scratch projects into JavaScript code and edit them that way.

What if it doesn't work?
Not every project will translate perfectly. That's why we have a team of Leopard Mentors who are here to offer support. If you are having trouble with a project, you can ask here on the forums or create a dedicated “cleanup crew” post to get more 1-on-1 help.

Thank you so much to the contributors who made Leopard possible!

You can right-click and click inspect (ctrl/cmd+shift+c) to get the website's code–and edit it! That is also a good way to learn JavaScript.

Can it have an option to read the full error logs? it would help me.

That's not necessarily true, because the scratch source code is not easy to read, which makes it very hard to learn.

The source code is readable, but what you see in the devtools on Scratch (and many other websites) is minified to reduce the file size.

In addition to in many cases not actually being representative of the original source, especially if some web assembly or typescript is present

Yes, you can. However, you have to write it in the way Scratch does it internally.

lepordjs.com is the subject of this topic

Ok then

Despite this being a simple project, it fails to load in leopard. Why is this issue?

I think its an older version maybe?

I tried to convert a pen project, but it gives an error on every project with pen, even though it says pen is supported. It works fine with non-pen projects though.

I had the same issue. I think it’s caused by certain blocks, which some pen blocks being supported and others not. I’m not sure which ones but if you go to previous pages you will probably find the answer.
