Rework Blocks Code #248
Comments
Also, it's probably going to be a pretty annoying task, considering that we've even built a tutorial on top of Elemental already. |
I'll make an effort to keep the HTML working exactly the same way, then the tutorial should continue to function. And worst case I can rework them too |
I'm working on this |
Just a question: |
'cause I'm having too much fun doing it myself |
pls don't |
lots of progress on this, it's still partially-done but I'm excited |
😈 |
hey, I was 14. 'nuf said |
What but you said you're 17 now also I was also... different :P |
it was a couple months before i turned 15 or I was 15 and I just can't count :P |
To be 17 now you were 16 by 4/11/2016 and 15 by 4/11/2015 :P |
Srsly though, wouldn't it be much faster if we just used Blockly? They even have a block-making web interface! |
But it's fun |
And Elemental's blocks look better. |
Thanks to... @PullJosh I think |
Can't we reskin the Blockly blocks? Seriously, I think Blockly is the way to go here. |
But I'm having fuuuuun and I'm most of the way done anyway |
I can probably finish most of the blocks very quickly (most of the blocks follow a similar template). |
fun though |
We should do things the easiest and most standard way possible, not the most fun way possible. |
I already have all of the blocks working fully, right now I'm working on file i/o |
I feel like one of the unstated goals of this project was to have fun building it, if we wanted to do everything the most efficient way we would've started with a website template and Blockly and we never would've attempted a backend, but I also would've abandoned the project far sooner because building something from the ground-up is a lot more fun |
If our goals of the project were to have fun building it, maybe we should have built our own browser to implement our site in machine code from the ground up. Also, do you have any specs for your implementation of the object system so we can all use it? |
|
Hey, but your idea of fun is writing stuff from the ground up... |
Let's stop squabbling and take it to a vote: |
Go ahead and finish the PR before writing specs because there's probably still potential for change :P (assuming #249 is what we go with) Also I really don't want to keep the current system because that stream-of-consciousness post I made caused me to realize the flaws the current system has... which would pretty much require a rewrite The vote will provide the citation you request so I guess that works also blockly is ugly and I can't find how to restyle it |
I can't react because mobile but Fun |
It took some fiddling, but once I figured that the styling was put in The menu bar looks awful, but it's an improvement. |
still looks ugly. |
But you can style blockly anyway you want. Like scratch-blocks did |
But if we have to go to all that trouble just to get OK looking blocks it would be easier to just keep what we already have. |
I understand it requires work but think about it. Blockly gives you everything you need but only requires that you style it. |
not as far as we've seen we've pretty much decided to go with #249 based on the vote of past and current contributors |
Fun |
closing since #258 was merged |
I guess we're back at it! Copied from forum:
