Happy 10 years of Hopscotch! Thanks for sharing this journey with us and we’re excited to see you in the livestream.
This is really cool! I have a question: Why is Hopscotch, called Hopscotch in the first place?
That’s a good question! I think it might’ve been a way for girls to get into coding as many girls felt discouraged as it was mainly a male-dominated job. That’s what I think it was but I’m excited to see the actual answer if it’s different!
the unavoidable and classic question: what is your greatest accomplishment youre most proud of during these 10 year?
what (new) block do you think has the greatest potential in hopscotch and why? you dont have to worry on the dev side, for example how much time will be spent on it - just pretend you can make that block appear with one keyboard click haha
and finally, if you could remove a block from the editor, what would it be?
congrats on 10 years!! thats really really awesome :D
Very interesting. I’ll set myself a little reminder. I’m subscribed to the Hopscotch: Creative Coding channel, so I’ll be notified of a livestream anyways, but I’ll add an extra reminder just in case.
As for the questions, I only have 2:
If you had to choose one project to showcase on your livestream, which one would you choose?
What would you change about the current design of Hopscotch, if any, and why?
Has there been a feature that you have wanted to add to hopscotch but could not due to limitations with older devices, or would take too much time, or would require a bunch of work, or any other reason?
Here’re a few questions: 1) If the team had never thought of the name “HOPSCOTCH”,What would the name of the app be now? 2) It the app logo was supposed to be a character from hopscotch, which one would the team choose?
