Summary
In this chapter, we reviewed Scratch both in terms of its possibilities and how it's used in the book to create stories, animations, games, and art. Whether you're a mom, a dad, a workshop facilitator, or a young scratcher, this chapter lays the foundation for the work we'll do in the rest of the book. We've even explored a project and the project editor.
In the next chapter, we'll create an online Scratch account, explore the community, and then move right into our first Scratch project. It'll give us an easy way to tinker with the Scratch interface and take our first steps. We'll focus on some project management fundamentals including naming objects, sharing projects, and lots of things in between.
