Scratch: Difference between revisions

'''Scratch''' is a user-friendly programming language and online community created by the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) that enables young people to create their interactive stories, games, and animations. Its website, ''scratch.mit.edu'', provides a platform for users to create, share, and explore projects publicly or privately, and remix other people's projects to create their own variations. Scratch employs a visual block-based interface, including a library of sprites and backdrops to aid users in creating their interactive stories and games. Scratch provides resources such as tutorials, activity guides, and forums, to help users learn how to use Scratch effectively. It has a thriving online community, with users sharing their projects and providing feedback and encouragement to each other. Scratch is also known for being used as a plugin to create simplistic [[screamers]], like [[Adobe Flash]].
