This is the original MVP codebase for Scripta — built to validate the core concept, test the architecture, and ship a working product fast.
The MVP is no longer actively developed. It now serves as the open-source foundation and historical reference for the full Scripta platform, which is being built in a separate private repository with a redesigned UI and extended feature set.
If you want to explore the codebase, run it locally, or fork it as a starting point — you're welcome to do so under the MIT license.
Scripta MVP is a full-stack platform where developers and students can write, execute, document, and organize code snippets directly in the browser — no installation required.
Execution engine
- Run code in the browser across 5 languages: JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, C++, Java
- Self-hosted execution via Express + child_process — no external APIs
- Standard input (stdin) support
- Real output with exit code reporting
Snippet management
- Create, edit, delete and organize snippets
- Public, private and unlisted visibility
- Tag system for semantic organization
- Filter and search across the community
Documentation & diagrams
- Markdown editor with live preview
- AI-generated flow diagrams from code
- Custom diagram prompts
Knowledge Collections
- Official curated collections (Programming Fundamentals, OOP, Data Structures, Algorithms)
- Collection → Snippet many-to-many with ordered index for learning paths
Authentication
- JWT-based auth
- Google and GitHub OAuth
- Bcrypt password hashing
