Should I use a separate app for drawing or should I use scratch’s sprite editor?

Wondering which one is better for art. Using an app like Sketchbook or use scratch’s sprite editor?

Depends on what you're doing. For bitmap stuff, just about anything is better than Scratch's bitmap editor.
For the vector editor, tools are harder to find, but there are plenty out there. If you use an external vector editor, make sure that it can export as a .svg file.

The devs really need to update the scratch-gui repo- I'm getting at least 19 “npm warn deprecated” warnings whenever I try to install its dependencies, and yes, I'm using the latest version of node.js and npm. Then again, the dev page on this website and the wiki in the repo still refer to Scratch 3.0 in beta, and link the current website as an example of 2.0.

It's completely your choice.

Okay! I guess both an app for drawing or scratch’s vector editor is good.
