This has evolved in parallel with Scratch 2.0 under the experimental ScratchX umbrella and version 3.0 brings it into core.

Scratch is a programming language, created by MIT, that makes it easy to create interactive art, stories, simulations, and games. Explore your ideas and share your creations online.

Last year’s release of Scratch 2.0 brought that community into the cloud. Scratch has been used in more than 150 countries and is available in more than 40 languages.
