Hello, I couldn’t find a PXT target for MakeCode for Minecraft. Is there a way for me to test my code without a local environment? ---

you mean like testing your game without minecraft? if you say yes to this question, the answer is no. ---

Thank you. Testing just the way blocks appear and such. See: [https://makecode.com/cli/target](https://makecode.com/cli/target). There is microbit, adafruit and Maker here. I was hoping Minecraft will also be a target here as it is available as a target in the MakeCode playground ([https://makecode.com/playground](https://makecode.com/playground)). ---

Are you saying testing out minecraft in the microbit hardware stuff? ---

pxt-minecraft is a private repo, which is why you can’t find it 😃 what are you trying to test? ---

Ah, that makes sense :). I’m building a programming curriculum for my students ([https://puthir.in/kani](https://puthir.in/kani)) with custom blocks and I’d love to have access to pxt-minecraft. ---

ooo if you’re just adding custom blocks, could you create an extension? [https://makecode.com/extensions](https://makecode.com/extensions) I’m not sure if you’re familiar with extensions, but you can import Github repos as extensions for custom blocks! ---

Yes, I read through the extensions documentation and am building one. But it would be nice to have a local environment to get live feedback instead of having to push to github and then import. It would greatly improve developer experience if I have access to pxt-minecraft. ---

I’m also excited and curious about what else I can do with pxt-minecraft that is not limited to custom blocks. ---

Some context: Pre-covid, our students were “programming” using physical wooden blocks using a physical programming language and environment that we designed. I’m working on porting this over to Minecraft. >
