Bilup Packager

The Bilup Packager turns a Scratch or Bilup project into a standalone program: a single HTML file, a zip, or a native executable for Windows, macOS, or Linux. The output does not need the editor or an internet connection to run, and it bundles Bilup's fast compiled runtime.

Use it at packager.bilup.org.

It fills the same role as HTMLifier or the forkphorus packager, with more output formats and more control over the loading screen, controls, and runtime settings.

What you can do with it​

  • Share a project as one file. Send someone an HTML file they can open in any browser, with no Bilup branding around it.
  • Ship a desktop app. Package to an Electron, NW.js, or WKWebView executable that runs like a native program.
  • Embed a project you fully control. Embed the packaged file instead of relying on a hosted embed.
  • Run offline or on locked-down networks. See the offline packager.

Getting a project into the packager​

You have a few options:

  • Enter a Scratch project ID or a direct project URL.
  • Upload an .sb3 file from your computer.
  • Send the current project straight from the editor. See Editor integration.

Remember that unshared Scratch projects cannot be loaded by ID; download the .sb3 and upload it instead.

Common settings​

The packager exposes most of the same runtime options as the editor, including custom FPS, interpolation, high quality pen, and custom stage size. It also adds packager-specific features:
