hi,

here for example i can see the code on block and on js - https://makecode.microbit.org/#editor

and here i can write python - https://python.microbit.org/v/1.1

is there any place that i can convert my js to python, like here that i can convert from block to js and from js to block ? 

Thanks Asaf

In short... no, not really. Converting between programming languages essentially requires building a compiler. This includes converting from a text-based language like JS or Python to Blockly, and if you mess around with MakeCode's stuff long enough you'll see that it really doesn't do a very good job of converting JS into idiomatic Blockly -- it WORKS, to be sure, but the blocks end up being really ugly and not very much like what a human programmer would have produced.

That said, it's not COMPLETELY out of the question. I don't know of any existing Python-to-Blockly conversion tools, but a sufficiently ambitious developer could make one.

Hi!

As said before, you cannot easily translate JS to Micropython, but you can translate Blockly to Micropython.

There is Edublocks doing a pretty good job at converting Blockly to micro:bit Micropython https://app.edublocks.org/#Microbit

You can also use the solution we design at Vittascience https://en.vittascience.com/microbit/

Let me know what you think about all this!

About the reverse trad Python to blockly, I saw this one: https://think.cs.vt.edu/blockpy/blockpy/load

Best,
Léo
