Should we be using a custom editor or Scratch 3.0?

[MattTheNub]

@elementnet/editor Question: is it really that good of an idea to be using our own block rendering and stuff? I think we'd be much better off using Scratch 3.0

On the other hand, that would mean we would have to re-program it to work for us properly.

[tregsthedev]

We should use scratch 3.0. Scracth 3.0 uses Blocky.

[MattTheNub]

But... We would be rewriting quite a lot of the code anyway. The basic drag-and drop mechanics won't be that difficult to re-code. IIRC, that would also mean we have to be BSD-licensed rather than Apache

[tregsthedev]

Making our own Will Take a lot of time.
But, okay.
I will make a repo for this.
Can I have acces to create repos?

[MattTheNub]

@Narulacodes Repo for what? This is the editor repo...

[tregsthedev]

Opps. So how are we going to make this?

[MattTheNub]

SVG elements to render blocks, perhaps. For drag and drop, probably just this.

[tregsthedev]

How do we start this?

[MattTheNub]

I don't know. Right now, we are still in the process of fixing elementnet/elementnet-www

[tregsthedev]

What Do we need to fix?

[MattTheNub]

Organization. Take a look at other Node.JS projects. Root is clean, a few folders, and are built. I tried to do some of this on the reorganize branch, but it still needs to be fixed (both organization and the build)

[tregsthedev]

So, What files?

[MattTheNub]

We should also probably move this elsewhere (like Gitter)
