= for introduction to scratch UI page (does not exist yet) = The Scratch editor has several key areas that need to be understood before work on a project can begin.

The Stage
The Stage is the area of the screen where you can see your project. Above the stage's left half is the Green Flag and Stop Sign buttons. The Green Flag will run any code placed under a "When Green Flag clicked" block, and the Stop Sign will stop all running code. On the right half are three buttons. The rightmost button is the fullscreen button, which allows you to swap between fullscreen and the editor view. When looking at the project page, it will instead switch between fullscreen and the project page. The two buttons to the left allow you to switch between the full-sized stage and a reduced-size stage. This can be helpful if you have a smaller monitor or lots of code.

The Sprite Pane
Underneath of the stage is the Sprite Pane. This area shows all of the sprites in your project. Sprites are all of the parts of your project that can do things such as move or run code. On the right of the sprite pane is the a button for the stage. This lets you add backdrops, sounds, and code to the stage. The stage is like a sprite that cannot move and is always on the bottom. Above the area where all your sprites are listed is some quick options for your sprites. Here you can change their position, rotation, and size without using code. You can also show or hide the sprite. Lastly, you can change the name of the sprite.
