Scratch is 'a high-level block-based visual programming language and website aimed primarily at children as an educational tool for programming'[1].
In May 2022, it was rumoured that unshared projects, previously accessible through the API and thereby with third-party client alternatives, would likely be made private soon.[2]
Technical details
- Website (official client): https://scratch.mit.edu/[IA•Wcite•.today•MemWeb]
- API: projects.scratch.mit.edu
https://projects.scratch.mit.edu/IDreturns the data for a project. It can be either a JSON response with references to assets (hosted on assets.scratch.mit.edu) or, for old projects up to ID 3.8 million or so, a binary file that includes the assets. IDs are decimal and go to around 690 million as of late May 2022.
