Scratch-www: Scratch Website Theme

[versocre]

On the homepage, the site shows the new theme that has been added but on other Scratch pages like profiles or projects, it shows the old theme.

Of course! Those pages haven't been migrated.

Basically, this new "theme" isn't just a theme, at all. It's a whole new version of all the pages! You can see the code for the new pages here, all that code is – and since all the code is new it takes a lot of time to remake everything. Especially because the backend needs to be redone, too - that's the API. (It's not open-source but you can experiment it with it here and learn more about it here.)

We say when a page has been completely updated to use new code that fits with this codebase (and others - e.g. the backend - as described earlier) that it's been "migrated".

The reason the profile and project pages haven't been migrated is because to finish those you'd need a new backend for those projects - and that means updating the old database to a new one, possibly, setting up the new API for that, and so on and so forth.. And then you need to get the frontend done, too.

Just some insight. :)
