The current blocks editor offers very limited documentation features, and once the code gets longer, it’s hard to scroll around and follow the logic. While some blocks let you add comments, but this option is too limited to clearly explain the purpose of the implementation.  
Is there any way to export the blocks code as a PDF or images for documentation purposes?

Unfortunately not. It really does depend on where you’re gonna use it and what you’re gonna use it for.

You’ll have to take various screenshots and put them in whatever place it needs to. In your case since you wanted a PDF, you would

- Take various screenshots and paste them in a Google Doc or Microsoft Word file
- Convert the Doc or `.docx` file into a PDF file

For images, you would do the same process, minus the Google Docs insert part.

Thunkable does not provide this feature due to the fact that it is tailored to be a **coding editor** , not a image or PDF converter. As I have said, this is (one of) the best and ideal ways to get what you want.

If you could provide more information as for why you’re using it, I could probably give a better, clarified answer.

Funny. I think you rushed to give some response.

Heh. What makes you think that? I told what I already know.
