I have a HP Chromebook 14 and Snap! won't load any of the Snap! code. I can visit the "Run Snap! Now" page, but after it's done loading, it shows a blank white page. From what I noticed, everything works fine except with the Snap! code. It works when l use my phone or other electronic devises, but not the Chromebook.
@bh I don't think I have any Chrome extensions, Scratch runs fine on the laptop so I'd assume Snap! should work as well knowing they are written with very similar code.
@sarpnt I did check the developer console and some errors did pop up, it seems to be something with java script.
That's a really old model, right? It would be a 2014 model. Can you check whether it's running the latest Chrome? Otherwise it might not support current JavaScript features required to run Snap.
Nope. But what I did notice is that they "when key pressed" stopped working with automatic auto correct (it corrects your words without the red line under it)
the first error is on this line of code: var buff = new Uint8Array(await aFile?.arrayBuffer()),
the only . is part of the ?. operator which is pretty new.
like jens suggested, your browser is old and you need to update it.
if the laptop is old enough that they aren't providing updates for it anymore, you'd need to find a workaround like installing linux on it.
chromebooks often only get around 6.5 years of support and never get updates again, i'd reccomend avoiding them for that reason. normal computers allow installing and upgrading anything you want on them and generally make it easy.
