About

Scratch is a free visual programming language and online community where anyone can create their own stories, games, and animations. Developed by the MIT Media Lab, Scratch is designed primarily for users aged 8–16, but it is used by all ages and has a sizeable adult user base. The platform utilizes a block-based interface, allowing users to drag and connect code blocks to create programs, making it accessible for beginners. Scratch is used in many different settings, schools, museums, libraries, community centers, and homes. The platform supports over 70 languages, enabling a global community of users to share and remix projects. As of February 2023, the Scratch community has more than 103 million users and over 123 million shared projects. The website offers resources for parents and educators, including guides and tutorials to support learning and teaching. Scratch is taught and used in after-school centers, schools, and colleges, as well as other public knowledge institutions.

About

Solar2D is a Lua-based game engine focused on ease of iterations and usage. As a fully open-source project forked from the well-established and widely used Corona SDK game engine, Solar2D allows developers to create applications for mobile, desktop, and connected TV devices with a single codebase, supporting platforms such as iOS, tvOS, Android, Android TV, macOS, Windows, Linux, and HTML5. The engine features an instant-update simulator, enabling developers to see code changes in real time, and supports live builds for rapid testing on real devices over a local network. A vast array of plugins is available to extend the core functionality, covering aspects like in-app advertising, analytics, and media. For additional customization, developers can call any native (C/C++/Obj-C/Java) library or API using Solar2D Native. Built on the lightweight and fast Lua scripting language, Solar2D is completely free to use, with no hidden fees, charges, or royalties.
