   HAS IDE AS FBEdit, FBNP,WINFBE, VisualFB, etc

   🏁 Competitors: Visual Basic

• qb.js: An implementation of QBASIC in Javascript

  If you have linux or windows, you can try freebasic. I believe it has a qbasic compatibility mode. Source: over 2 years ago

• Ask HN: What are your opinions on modern BASIC dialects?

  Have you looked at https://freebasic.net/ and https://www.qb64.org/portal/ ? It's been ages since I actually wrote code in BASIC, but there do appear to be nice open-source options in the modern world. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Ready to miss a semi colon and spend the next hour stressing over what went wrong?

  Clang is an LLVM based C compiler that "allows better diagnostics, better integration with IDEs, a license that is compatible with commercial products, and a nimble compiler that is easy to develop and maintain," compared to other options. Source: over 1 year ago

• Alternatives of MinGW for MacOS

  VS Code is not an IDE. It's simply an editor without any built-in compiler tools. So you MUST use "other compiler" (and bintools) anyway. As I said, Apple's official C/C++ compiler is LLVM-Clang, which offers even better optimization in some tasks. Source: almost 2 years ago

• What is the point of free and open source software?

  One illustration of this came in 2015 when Stallman decided he Would rather prevent the Gnu Compiler Collection from supporting modern IDE features like symbol completion, than allow GCC front ends to be paired with free-but-not-copyleft backends like LLVM and Clang: "Since LLVM and Clang are not copylefted, they invite nonfree extensions. They are a gaping hole in the defensive wall around our city." Allowing... - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

  It is because clang++ is required but instead what is actually used is g++. Therefore, the successful way is:. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Planning an online C compiler for IPC144

  Thus, I have other smaller objectives to look for. The first thing I am looking for is to make the simplest code example, a "Hello World" program to be compilable and runnable in the browser. This will require a lot of configuration, since emscripten, a C-to-WebAssembly compiler, actually has some dependencies like LLVM and clang, which took me over 6 hours to compile a single time so I could set the environment... - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
