Scratch, Raspberry Pi and RC-Car

Now that I have a Rspberry Pi driving an RC car via an HTML interface, my thoughts turned to wondering if I could use Scratch to drive the car.

First thoughts are how do I get scratch to interface to my GPIO pins to drive the car, and secondly whether scratch is on the tablet to do the control, or on the Raspberry Pi wih a programming interface on the tablet.

Possible links to investigate:
https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/scratch-2-raspberry-pi/       Looks good.

https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/usage/scratch/     Basic, but leads to previous

It might be easier than I think.

And we are up to scratch 3 in 2019

This last suggests a simple electronics extension that could be useful.
