Projet fantastique que j'ai découvert tout à son début. Ingénieur retraité, j'ai redecouvert la dernière version à 75 ans (avec hélas quelques faiblesses et Bogues) ... Je dis un grand Bravo et Merci à l'auteur Benoît M . J'espe que ce projet trouvera de nombreux adeptes. A ceux interessés par la programmation sous linux, je recommande vivement d'essayer cet IDE peu connu.

I've been using Gambas to write wrappers for small scripts where a GUI would be nice. It's super easy, mostly reliable and what VB6 would have been had it still been supported and made a true OOP language. The thing I love the most about it is it just seems to make sense. Everytime I code something and say to myself, "well I think it should work this way".... It just does. So intuitive. After writing an application for our 70" touchscreen display that tracks our maintenance items, I was finally compelled to donate to this most excellent project. After all, we use the app. everyday. The guilt was too much. :-)

It will become an excellent IDE if it can be connected to the Roslyn code analyzer to edit VB.net codes and develop GTK# applications.

This is an outstanding BASIC IDE. The GUI builder is exceptional and allows easy porting of visual basic programs with only a small learning curve, Only drawback is it does not have the extensice support network of vb.net but it is faster, easier and more sable than vb.net. I wish there was speech recognition and epssch synthesis support too...

I find this really good is a lot quicker than visual basics and yeah its not the same but it is very similar. The only problem I find is trying to find codes, I know there's good examples but of course they don't cover everything. Like I was trying to find code to get stock quotes but I couldn't find anything through my Internet searches hopefully one day some one will do like gambas version of www.vbcode.com which may make it a lot easier to find codes
