GAMBAS is a free development environment and a full powerful object-oriented
language and development platform based on a Basic interpreter with optional
just-in-time compilation, as easy as Visual Basic™ was.
- 2ndorderthought 5mo agoThanks for sharing this. If it has a RAD I actually might try this. I don't care what HN says, sometimes I just need to display some data with like 4 buttons without the nightmare that is modern front end. Ya I can write front end sometimes I really don't want to.
- conz 5mo agoAbsolutely does provide a RAD front-end. It's actually a spectacularly well-provisioned development tool with which you can build Gnome/KDE/terminal apps, and even provides a web forms engine for deploying much the same apps via HTTP. Its only real issue is that it's a great tool for client-side-first RAD development in an era when much of software development has moved to web-side-first. Enjoy
