About
Scratch is a free visual programming language and online community where anyone can create their own stories, games, and animations. Developed by the MIT Media Lab, Scratch is designed primarily for users aged 8–16, but it is used by all ages and has a sizeable adult user base. The platform utilizes a block-based interface, allowing users to drag and connect code blocks to create programs, making it accessible for beginners. Scratch is used in many different settings, schools, museums, libraries, community centers, and homes. The platform supports over 70 languages, enabling a global community of users to share and remix projects. As of February 2023, the Scratch community has more than 103 million users and over 123 million shared projects. The website offers resources for parents and educators, including guides and tutorials to support learning and teaching. Scratch is taught and used in after-school centers, schools, and colleges, as well as other public knowledge institutions.

About
SpriteKit is Apple's 2D game development framework that provides a graphics rendering and animation infrastructure for animating textured images, or sprites. It leverages Metal to achieve high-performance rendering and integrates seamlessly with other Apple frameworks like ARKit and SceneKit, allowing for the creation of immersive augmented reality experiences. Developers can utilize SpriteKit's scene editor within Xcode to design and preview game levels, characters, and animations, streamlining the development process. The framework also supports physics simulations, particle systems, and various special effects, enabling the creation of dynamic and interactive game environments. With its intuitive API and robust toolset, SpriteKit simplifies the development of engaging 2D games and applications across Apple's platforms.
