This AI1 to AI2 converter used to work https://appinventor.mit.edu/explore/blogs/adminexplore/2015 . The link to the converter no longer works...sorry

You may have to find another tutorial in App Inventor 2 Blocks or use the advice in these posts from the old forum to convert your AI1 blocks to Ai2 equivalent blocks manually if you have a copy of the original Advent calendar tutorial:

Here is a simple framework for an Advent Calendar.

Use the blocks that calculate the number of days til Christmas to create your own personalized calendar.

Be creative, show a different image on each count down day or make a grid with 24 slots and display an image in each slot after the count day arrives (show all the previous days as an image and the remaining as a place holder). The Blocks to do this are not included.

What can you do @Giftwolke
