A Scratch Modification, alternatively known as a mod, is a modified version of the Scratch program, usually made by Scratchers with more advanced knowledge. The most common purpose behind making Scratch modifications is the addition of new features or blocks. Others include customizing the editor, removing limits such as clone limit and improving project performance. Projects made with mods that include extra features or blocks are not supported by the original Scratch program or online players, and the Scratch Website does not allow sharing of such projects.[1] The license for Scratch 1.x source code did not allow the word "Scratch" to be used to refer to modifications, with the exception of attribution to Scratch[2].
