mAuthor offers three new Addons specially designed for programming:
Programming Comand Prompt – a Command Line, which allows users to enter the JavaScript code, and then execute it in the Grid Scene module.
Grid Scene – a scene consisting of up to 40×40 squares that can be marked with different colors by entering the code in Programming Command Prompt, Blockly Code Editor or other Addons, e.g. Advanced Connector. It is possible to use the ready-made, pre-defined commands or create new ones.
Blockly Code Editor – the editor, in which a user creates the program to be executed on the scene by dropping relevant blocks and joining them together. The Addon contains a huge base of ready-made blocks and different types of connections. It also enables creating variables and custom blocks.
