<h1>There is a better way to run offline so this is no longer maintained!</h1>
<p>
See <a href="./help/progressive-web-app.html">how to run as an app</a>.

<h2>Running Snap! and AI blocks locally</h2>
<h3>Running everything on http:localhost</h3>
<p>
<a href="https://snap.berkeley.edu/">Snap!</a> and the <a href="./index.html">AI blocks</a> developed as part of the <a href="http://project.ecraft2learn.eu/">eCraft2Learn Project</a>
can be run locally so that the majority of the functionality will work without an Internet connection.
After cloning or downloading <a href="https://github.com/ecraft2learn/localhost">all the needed files</a>
one can simply open the <code>htdocs/ai/index.html</code> file
but most browsers will not permit access to the microphone, camera, and some other services.
The solution is to run a local web server.
When a local web server is running then <a href="http:localhost:8000/ai/">localhost:8000/ai/</a> will launch the AI home page
providing access to libraries, guides, and sample projects.
</p>
<p>We provide a tiny server for Windows machines.
Simply launch <code>miniweb.exe</code> after booting up the computer.
<a href="https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3083">MacOs has a builtin web server</a>.
There are also <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/web-server-for-chrome/ofhbbkphhbklhfoeikjpcbhemlocgigb?hl=en">Chrome extensions</a>
for running a local web server on ChromeBooks.
</p>
<h3>What parts rely upon an Internet connection</h3>
<p>
If you are running this without an Internet connection the following blocks will not function: speech recognition, speech synthesis,
and image recognition that uses cloud services from Google, IBM, and Microsoft. Very limited speech recognition is available via the
<span class='block-name'>Audio label confidences</span> and somewhat limited speech recognition is available via
<span class='block-name'>Analyze costume</span> and <span class='block-name'>labels for costume</span>.
</p>
<h3>Support</h3>

Please report any problems to Ken Kahn (toontalk@gmail.com).
