I was wondering how do you use python in scratch with your projects? I've seen people make there own servers on scratch and things using python and I really want to do this with another programming language.

You can't. Besides it's rejected:

2.2 Text-based syntax in Scratch
Some users wish to code Scratch not with the blocks, but with typing code instead (similar to how more advanced programming languages work). Others are interested in an option to view, convert, or download Scratch code to other programming languages. However, the Scratch Team has discussed this possibility multiple times and has decided every time that it would not be beneficial for beginners or teachers.

This suggestion extends to coding, viewing, converting, or downloading Scratch in any text-based language, including BBCode, Javascript, some form of pseudocode, or some other programming language. If you wish to code using another language, then you can learn it on your own, but it would have to be done outside of Scratch. For those who are interested, it may be worth checking out Tosh. It is a text-based programming language that serves as a text editor for Scratch projects.

Then how is timmccool using it for his project?

Can you link his project?

https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/408061203/ This is one of the projects where he used it.

Can you point out where he used Python in the project? Cause all I see is the scratch blocks code.

I think there are ways to use cloud variables to externally run a Python script and have it affect the Scratch project. I loved a project recently which does that. I have no clue how to actually do that, however.

It requires the use of scratchclient and a external hoster.

For example, a repl.it could do this.

: print (“hello world”)
