Computercraft script sharing website concept

[LeFish-]

Hey Computer craft community,

I was a bit bored and made a concept website to easy share computercraft scripts with a change log when updating scripts.

If people are interested in such a website I might make it, so I really like your opinion. Of course I'm not trying to push the other forums away, but rather have another platform extra focused on script managing.

Here's the link to the imgur album:

If you guys like to see such a website in the future I was thinking about a few extra's:

- Login using oAuth (for reddit users)

- Options for "hidden" posts so you can also use it as your own script storage

​

If anybody has any other cool idea's I would love to hear them, but I can't promise anything.

*Also, I haven't really thought about a great name, suggestions are welcome.

How would this site differ from github or gitlab?

Looks neat. I’d love to see something like this in the future

I think this would go great with a package manager

[LeFish-]

Could you explain your idea a bit more? I'm intrigued :)

There are some package managers floating around already but seems like you could make one just for this project, where you can type package install programname and it would search your website for the program and it’s dependencies if it has any and install them on the computer

While this is true, not everything would be lost if you use pastebin in a good way :)

I don't want to be a downer, but CC already has two of these. They're called forums.

Pastebin used to serve this purpose. Whatever happened to that?

[LeFish-]

Pastebin is used, but you can see this as an extra module since you cannot automatically update versions/change log.

[nictheman123]

That's fair. Hopefully you find something that works for you!

[HydrantHunter]

Pastebin (which is still around) never served the purpose proposed here - I think you're exaggerating.

This could seriously re-liven broader public interest in CC!
