## Research Notes

### Blockly Documentation References

- [Getting Started](https://developers.google.com/blockly/guides/get-started)
- [Custom Blocks](https://developers.google.com/blockly/guides/create-custom-blocks/overview)
- [Code Generators](https://developers.google.com/blockly/guides/create-custom-blocks/generating-code)
- [Toolbox Configuration](https://developers.google.com/blockly/guides/configure/web/toolbox)
- [Workspace Serialization](https://developers.google.com/blockly/guides/configure/web/serialization)

### Key Blockly Concepts

- **Workspace**: The canvas where blocks are placed
- **Toolbox**: The sidebar menu of available blocks
- **Block Definition**: JSON or JS object defining block appearance and connections
- **Generator**: Function that converts block to code
- **Mutator**: Dynamic block that can change shape (e.g., if/elseif/else)

### Blockly React Integration

Options:
1. **@blockly/react** - Official React wrapper (may have limitations)
2. **Direct integration** - Use Blockly.inject() in useEffect

Research needed: Which approach works better with our build system?
