Ocular

Ocular is a website created by Jeffalo. Its primary use is its ability to search through the Scratch forums, something that the Scratch website itself doesn't provide. Users can also log in (effectively through their Scratch account) and do things such as set custom statuses and their favorite color. The site's services are partly powered by ScratchDB.

Search
The primary use of the Ocular site is the search function, which allows visitors to search the Scratch forums. Users can also include parameters (username, category, topic, title, id, content) and arrange the results (relevance, newest, oldest) to narrow down their search.

Dashboard
Through use of FluffyScratch Authentication, users can log in with their Scratch account to access a dashboard on the Ocular site. Here, users are able to set a personal status and their "favorite color." Both of these settings appear under their profile picture in search results found on the site.

These statuses also connect to Shefwerld.

Reactions
When viewing posts on Ocular, users can react to posts with pre-set emojis such as thumbs up, thumbs down, rocket emoji, and so on.

Starring
Logged in users can star posts to save for later. Starred posts are personalized and appear in the "starred" link found in the header of the site.

Themes
Visitors can set the site's palette to any of the five settings: Light, Dark, Scratch, CatsUnited, Classic Dark, and System. System matches your system settings (between Light and Dark mode.)
