Does Construct 3 support Python?

Hi, so, I just recently started learning some Python coding stuff, and I was just wondering if Construct 3 supported it. I'm really new to Python, so I don't even know if it has anything to do with gaming, but if anyone could tell me that would be nice. Thanks!

Hi,

The Construct 3 editor has nothing to do with Python.

Python is extremely versatile — you can build web servers, software, REST APIs, games... it’s up to you.

You might try to find something related to Python that can interact with Construct 3, like APIs, database or something like that.

Construct supports JavaScript, typescript and events. No other languages are supported beyond that.

You’d need to add support yourself or get someone else to do that. In theory you could compile the python interpreter into wasm to use via JavaScript, then add some kind of layer to call things from construct’s js api with python. But even doing all that would result in limits with what you can do. Aka you wouldn’t be able to run arbitrary python since within the web browser there are limits on things you can do or access. Generally working with supported languages are the easier way to go.

On the bright side any programming concepts you learn often transfer to other programming languages. Or you can go down the python rabbit trail.

Oh, okay, that's good to know. Thanks for telling me that!

Oh, okay. I don't really know that much about coding and that sort of stuff to add support myself, but I could do more research and maybe eventually I could. Thanks!
