I have been active on this suggestion thread which has been open for over 5 years now with many various supporters along the way. The ST has openly said it is not rejected, yet there has been no visible progress (to my knowledge) on the implementation of USB Gamepad support. A few supporters and I would like to take things into our own hands and make a pull request to the Scratch GitHub for this feature. We are unsure how to proceed and would like some help/advice on the matter. We wouldn't have to start from scratch (haha) because there are already people who have made their own open-source extensions for this. (One of them is on TurboWarp)

To be clear! This is NOT button mapping. The suggestion is to have a separate group of blocks (as a Scratch extension) with analog and rumble support!!

Reported to be moved to the Open Source Projects section

Have you decided API/lib you're gonna use? That's one of the first things to decide before developing it. And gave you forked the repo already?

No, I haven't done anything yet. I'm a GitHub noob, sorry. I do have an account though.

Fork the Scratch-vm repo, and set it up locally. From there, ensure you know JS and the blocky lib. You wanna find a good controller lib. LMK when all that's done.

Hey, I have close to no experience with coding languages other than Scratch and I don't know anything about GitHub, is there still any way I can help?

Make a GitHub Account, and start learning JS. You can’t jump into frameworks or libraries without knowing how the language works. Also, learn errors and than set up the Scratch environment locally. The Scratch-vm repo in particular. You’ll find in under the scratchfoundation account.

Actually, important question. Does everyone here know what a PR is?

A pull request is basically a request get a feature you write to a service.

Wait, so do you write code for a PR, or do you just ask for XYZ to be added?
