Other BASIC languages / Re: Other Basic languages worth checking out
« on: January 30, 2025, 07:15:38 pm »
These are both from one of the living legends of BASIC and early home computers.
BBC BASIC for Windows
And a newer version that is free, open source and cross-platform.
BBC BASIC for SDL 2.0
Both of the above are great and I have used them in the past, even the DOS version of BBC BASIC. Richard is a great guy and talented coder.
I also highly recommend these:
PureBasic
IceDesign GUI Designer (The best GUI designer for PureBasic, IMHO)
SpiderBasic
PureBasic is designed to pretty much run on any OS (Windows, Linux, MacOS and Raspberry Pi) or processor (32-bit or 64-bit or ARM). It is ALWAYS kept current with new technologies. Works great on the RaspberryPi. PureBasic creates DPI aware apps as a built in feature, which is a huge plus nowadays and has created 64bit EXEs for many, many years.
SpiderBasic is awesome for web-based applications, Android & iOS.
