Custom Blockly for my Robot

[Montassar Aidi Sharif]

Hi,

I want to create a visual programming language,  something like Blockly, because I want to create it and upload it to the google play store. I know how to use blockly but I need to create something like blockly or Scratch.  I am trying to achieve a very simple version of blockly app to control a robot such as Dash robot. I need to create an app that can drag and drop specific blocks that control the Robot motors such as when I want to move the robot forward or backward and turn left or right or change the speed of the robot. if you can send me a tutorial or video and the software I should start with.

Hello Montassar!

First of all I'd just like to clarify that Blockly and Scratch are different things =) Blockly is targeted at developers (like you!) that want to build things like Scratch, which are targeted at people that want to use blocks to code.

As for your main question, Blockly is a web library, so if you want to use Blockly to build something you upload to the play store, the best way to do that is to use electron to build a cross-platform app.

I hope that helps! If you have any further questions please reply!

I'm not sure that Electron directly supports building mobile apps that you can upload to the Play Store, although I am happy to be proved wrong ;-)  In any case, you might want to also take a look at Capacitor or React Native (or Expo, which is a somewhat nicer way to deal with React Native) as tools that allow you to build mobile apps using web technologies.
