TurboWarp

TurboWarp is a community-developed Scratch modification for you if you want faster-running projects, less editing lag, and a way to package your work as HTML files or apps.

by Thomas Weber

What you get

You can run Scratch projects faster and package them as apps.

You can keep building with Scratch while reducing the slowdown that comes with larger projects. TurboWarp compiles your projects so they can run up to 100 times faster, with less lag while editing. When idle, it also uses less memory and energy.

You get more control over how your animations look and move. Optional interpolation and 60 FPS support let you aim for smoother motion, while onion skinning helps you compare animation frames. Searchable dropdowns help you find options without scrolling through long menus, and dark mode gives you an alternative editing appearance.

When you want to distribute your work, you can package a project as an HTML file or an app. TurboWarp is developed by the community and is not affiliated with the Scratch Team.

  • Run projects faster

    You can run compiled Scratch projects up to 100 times faster and encounter less lag when editing large projects.

  • Refine animation movement

    You can compare frames with onion skinning and use optional interpolation or 60 FPS support for smoother motion.

  • Package your finished work

    You can turn your project into an HTML file or an app using the built-in packager.

  • Reduce idle resource use

    You use less memory and energy when your project is idle.

Best for

  • You build large Scratch projects that lag
  • You want more control over Scratch animations
  • You want to distribute a project as HTML or an app

Skip it if

You probably don't need it if standard Scratch already runs your projects well and you don't need extra animation controls or packaging.
