New addon ideas

[PPPDUD]

In order to succeed, Sparkle desperately needs more useful addons.

We also need people to implement said addons, of course.

@Mojavesoft-Group/jameson-team Anybody want to pitch in?

Edit: For the record, nobody's obligated to help out, but it would be for the greater good of this project to contribute.

Edit 2: Sorry for writing this issue so awkwardly. I'm not great at writing stuff when it's this late.

I'll propose the first idea. I want an addon that will let people import projects, libraries, and media assets from a personal GitHub repository or website and use them in their programming pursuits.

Here's my ideas:

• - @Tethrarxitet's Personal Libraries mod (please use Split's PL version, it's updated and has a very rudimentary "Edit Libraries" dialog)
• - Split! blocks (should be easy)
• - duplicate blocks shortcut
• - an IDE recolor addon (I think ego-lay_atman-bay's fork of Snap has that)
• - cut/copy/paste blocks addon
• - "rename all" for sprites (updates sprite's name everywhere)
• - better color picker
• - find bar (like Scratch Addons)
• - backpack addon

@e016 Thank you so much for introducing me to that theme customizer!!! It's incredibly fun to play with!

I call dibs on the clipboard addon (ill also add it for costumes and such)

I've started work on Snap! Inspector, a new addon that will let you probe Snap!'s internals and patch them with custom code.

[codingisfun2831t]

And what would a example of that be?

Glad you asked!

You can execute arbitrary JavaScript code...

You can patch the source code of addons...

You can add or remove trusted JavaScript domains for src_load:

...and you can even view (but not currently edit) the source code of primitives!

I'm also working on an addon that can apply more permanent patches than Snap! Inspector.

@e016 Have you made any progress on an addon for Split! blocks?
