Phet Simulations

[Stephen Comiskey]

Hi all,
I'm looking to create an app (to be used with windows devices so I'll be using the emulator)

I want the app to be able to launch the Phet simulations (https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/circuit-construction-kit-dc).

There are two ways of doing this

1) Downloading the files

2) launching app from my computer.

Does anyone have any idea how to do this?
I've set up an activity starter and directed it to the link above. 
Is this the only way?

Thanks :)

Hi Stephen,

Sorry for my english language, I'm a french IT educational consultant here in Québec...so forgive me ;-)

When I saw your question this morning, I went to your proposed URL. I tried this:

1. Opened the URL and choose one of the simulation ( I chose one to translate in french ;-) )

2. With Google Chrome I saved the page on my laptop. Google Chrome save the page and the files related to it (for example, a couple of .js files)

3. I opened it on Chrome and it worked. There's still some connections on the original site but the most part of it is stored locally.

4. I translated the HTML page to French and everything worked great.

So, if you save the files and tried to insert it in your app I think it might work.

I did a test on Rapid Interface Builder (https://01.org/rapid-interface-builder) and built a quick webapp and it worked great. So i think it is possible to do it on appinventor.

Good luck,

Pierre
