I'm looking for a programming environment similar to Scratch or AppInventor but generating code for JavaScript or HTML5. The basic idea is to build the program using "construction blocks". I need this for educational purposes.

I'm the developer of Waterbear, so I appreciate the plug, with the caveat that it is still very early and rough, so caveat acceptor. Another HTML block language, also based on Scratch is DesignBlocks, although I'm not sure what the development status is for that.

  • Lilyapp is the only browser based visual programming environment I know of... It uses the flowbased paradigm of Pure-Data & friends rather than the blockbased approach of Scratch & co. Actually it's a visual programming environment running in the browser rather than a tool to create websites. But you might still want to check it out.

  • Yahoo pipes is another great example of visual programming (for Mashups) and it might fit your needs for educational use.

inspect phpBlocks

It is a JavaScript + PHP Backend Solution like AppInventor from Google.
