Install Python (if not bundled with Edublocks)

Launch Edublocks -> open editor

Add libraries for hardware projects if needed (GPIO, micro:bit, etc.)

Save or export generated Python code for execution

Edublocks IDE installed

Python 3.x runtime

Optional hardware setup: Raspberry Pi or micro:bit

Libraries for hardware or additional functions

Cross-platform verification for classroom setup

Edublocks workspace files

Optional library configurations

Exported Python scripts

Project assets (images, sounds, etc.)

Hardware library files for GPIO/micro:bit

Run project -> execute blocks/Python locally

Export Python -> save script

Connect hardware -> interface with GPIO or micro:bit

Optional command-line execution if Python installed

UI supports multiple languages

Blocks labeled with simple, readable text

Python generated code remains standard

External translations possible

Designed for global educational use

Keyboard navigation within workspace

Color coding for visual cues

Simple drag-and-drop interface for beginners

Hardware projects provide tangible feedback

Developers/educators can create accessible lesson plans

Block colors indicate type (variable, loop, function, event)

Workspace layout customizable

Feedback through code window and simulation

Hardware output visible physically or via console

No CSS - purely visual blocks

Variables and program state via blocks

Event state for interactive inputs

Hardware state managed via GPIO/micro:bit library

Local memory handles runtime execution

No global threading required by default

Blocks define program logic and variable data

Assets stored in project folder

Python export retains logic for reuse

Optional I/O for hardware or file operations

Memory handled by Python interpreter during execution
