Description

There are also some features that other block programming platforms have that I think could be beneficial to add. I think adding a trash can to one of the corners of the workspace would be useful. Additionally, allowing users to drag blocks from one tab to another would be a useful tool.

Another thing I think would be helpful is to have some sort of block that functions like a toString block, so objects like motor faults/warnings can be printed when testing. I tried using the create text with block, and it printed this out in the console:

These were the blocks I used:

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Review the workspace, tab, and block-handling entry points to separate the trash can, cross-tab dragging, and object-to-string requests; done would require agreed scope and working behavior for each selected feature, with tests or a reproducible demonstration.
