* Google changed from an Inc to an LLC. This happened back in 2017 but we didn’t notice. Officially we should update files from Inc to LLC when they are changed as part of regular edits, but this is a nightmare to remember for the next decade. * Remove project description/titles from licenses This is no longer part of Google’s header requirements. Our existing descriptions were useless (“Visual Blocks Editor”) or grossly obselete (“Visual Blocks Language”). * License no longer requires URL. * Fix license regexps.

Samples
For samples on how to integrate Blockly into your project, view the list of samples at blockly-samples.
Importing Blockly
When you import Blockly with import * as Blockly from 'blockly'; you'll get the default modules:
Blockly core, Blockly built-in blocks, the JavaScript generator and the English lang files.
If you need more flexibility, you'll want to define your imports more carefully:
Blockly Core
import * as Blockly from 'blockly/core';
Blockly built in blocks
import 'blockly/blocks';
Blockly Generators
If your application needs to generate code from the Blockly blocks, you'll want to include a generator.
import 'blockly/python';
to include the Python generator, you can also import blockly/javascript, blockly/php, blockly/dart and blockly/lua.
Blockly Languages
import * as Fr from 'blockly/msg/fr';
Blockly.setLocale(Fr);
To import the French lang files. Once you've imported the specific lang module, you'll also want to set the locale in Blockly.
