Faster Performance: Utilizes a just-in-time (JIT) compiler to significantly speed up the execution of Scratch projects.
Additional Blocks: Offers new and extended blocks for more advanced programming capabilities. These can include blocks for:
More precise control over clones.
Advanced math and string operations.
Working with APIs (through extensions).
Hardware interaction (through extensions).
Extensions: Supports a wider range of extensions beyond those officially supported by Scratch, allowing for integration with external services and hardware. Popular extensions include those for:
WebRTC for peer-to-peer communication.
WebSocket for real-time communication.
Integration with microcontrollers like Arduino and Raspberry Pi.
Advanced graphics effects.
Customizable Settings: Provides various settings to customize the editor and runtime environment, such as rendering quality and frame rate limits.
Packaging Projects: Allows users to package their projects as standalone HTML files or Electron applications for easier sharing and distribution.
Compatibility: Fully compatible with Scratch 3.0 projects, allowing users to open and edit their existing creations.
Dark Mode: Offers a dark theme for the editor interface.
Command Line Interface (CLI): Provides a command-line interface for building and packaging projects. == History == TurboWarp was initially created by Griffpatch, a prominent member of the Scratch community, to address performance limitations in complex Scratch projects.
