Why can't i import a scratch project into Snap!

why can’t I import a scratch project? it’s so annoying.
look
before:


after:

Scratch uses a different file format from Snap. Use Snapinator to convert projects from Scratch into Snap.

Note that Snapinator has not been updated for several years, so certain conversions may not work. Also note that there are a few Scratch features that don’t directly correspond to something in Snap (Username, Online?, Face Recognition Extension [Snap has a face recognition library but it uses quite different blocks from Scratch], etcetera).

Snap is Scratch-inspired, not a Scratch modification, so they don’t promise to support all Scratch projects or allow you to directly open sb3 files.

uuuhhhh… it’s blocked i have to ask my parents

You’ll need to ask to use this site

If you want to, just send a request to an adult in your family.

Ask now

Is the project you want to convert available on the Scratch website? Because then you could send me the link, I could convert it and send you a link to a Snap version uploaded on my account.

it’s impossible for me to do that because my mom blocked scratch because im on it too much so i only have the scratch offline editor and turbowarp offline editor (turbowarp is a scratch mod)

Your best bet is to just recreate it in snap then.

What.

You recreate the project’s functionality using snap blocks rather than scratch as snap is not blocked for you

yeah but how about animations? will i have too import every signal costume?

Yes

Do you know of any other logical way?

because scratch useses .sb3 files (which are just .zip files in disguise) and snap uses .xml files, which are very different formats.
that being said, i could try to recreate snapinator inside snap
