BASIC is alive in 2018: WWWBasic for web

peacemaker · Sep 23, 2018

There are BASIC programming language fans even at Google, and, seem to be, they have much free time to ... develop one more BASIC

WWWBasic is an implementation of BASIC (Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) designed to be easy to run on the Web.

Maybe to fork it and update the language to b4w

they use java script to interpret basic? arrrggghh.

instead of this

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://google.github.io/wwwbasic/wwwbasic.js"></script>
<script type="text/basic">
PRINT "Hello World!"
FOR i = 1 to 10
PRINT "Counting "
NEXT
</script>
</head>
</html>

i would expect this and sure some gui commands.
index.basic

PRINT "Hello World!"
FOR i = 1 to 10
PRINT "Counting "; i
NEXT
