Local download versus saving online
| Workflow | Where the saved copy is kept | Sign-in in the documented workflow |
|---|---|---|
| Save to your computer | On your computer | Scratch’s help describes this as a local-download alternative. |
| Save online | On Scratch’s online service | Scratch says users need to join or sign in to save a project online: Scratch: Getting Started. |
These are separate save routes. The sign-in requirement Scratch describes applies to saving online; it does not establish whether sign-in is required to download every project, or whether any public project can be downloaded directly from its project page. For a documented local copy, open the project in the editor and use its File menu.

Scratch’s getting-started guide says Scratch can be downloaded for offline use, particularly for people with an older operating system or unreliable internet access. For current installation details, use Scratch’s official download page. The offline app and saving a project to your computer are related but distinct: use the editor’s File menu to save the local project copy.
