Scratux is a block-based visual programming language targeted primarily at children. Users can create projects using a block-like interface. With Scratux, you can program your own interactive stories, games, and animations — and share your creations with others in the online community.
Basically Scratux is a simple project that aims to provide Free/Libre Open Source Linux binaries of Scratch Desktop (previously called the Scratch Offline editor). So consider it as the unofficial Scratch for Linux ;)
Since the official Scratch project does not provide binaries for Linux distributions, we created this project so you do not have to download + build from source. Just click and install it.
Scratux is built-in different languages and is always based on the latest stable Scratch release. (Currently Scratch 3.0)
First, download this project and run the fetch.sh script. This will donwload our latest scratch-desktop and scratch-gui custom repositories and will initialize them. Then run npm or yarn to build.
$ git clone https://github.com/scratux/scratux.git
$ cd scratux
$ git checkout master
$ chmod +x fetch.sh
$ ./fetch.sh
$ cd src
$ yarn run dist // or npm run distDrop me some lines at joancipria@gmail.com
