my friend @mrfluffypenguins was asking about a snap to scratch converter,and since seems like their isn't one right now,do you think it could be added?
You can learn a lil bit more at the link
Because Snap! features tools that Scratch does not have, I don't think a Snap to Scratch converter would work. Besides, what the point of converting a Snap project into a Scratch one?
snapinator.github.io(scratch to snap) exists, and works, (for most projects)
so why not snap to scratch?
I guess I should add this to the FAQ.
The little differences that people mostly first notice could be handled by implementing the missing blocks as a library in the target language. But the things that really make Snap! special can't be done so easily in Scratch: first class procedures, first class lists, first class sprites with inheritance. I don't think the Scratch extension mechanism is general enough to allow a Snap! extension for Scratch, but that would be the way to go if it were possible. But it would be a huge effort, at least a year of work for a Jens-level super programmer.

Hmm, I feel like I'm just talking to myself. Scratch to Snap! is a solved problem, thanks initially to Kartik, who made the first Snapinator, and then to Dylan for rewriting and updating it.
But Snap! to Scratch is just not possible.
