I have a PS4, but I prefer gaming on PC because it is more powerful that the PS4.

GPVPL, a Visual programming language. There is no front end yet because I need to learn it and then build it 😅

I felt the same. I am working on a new visual programming language (will be making it open-source) as a side project to kill time. I want it to be able to write any generic code. But I suck at front-end development so I was wondering if anyone would be interested in collaborating.

What I'm building can't show diffs or do commits (yet, these are good ideas), but you can extract the source code, share it and run it somewhere else.

The current state of the project is

• It supports Int, String, Float, and Bool types
• Arithmetic operations are supported
• Variables can be assigned and used I am currently working on implementing Lists and Flow control (if/else and loops)

My vision(?) for this is to be a good place to learn and continue programming while also making it easy for the user to transition to a normal programming language like Java or Python. For the latter I am trying to achieve this by using very similar and in most cases, the exact same terminology and concepts for the design of the language.

I don't have a UI yet, but this is what the API call and the exported source code will look like

[
  {
    "description": "a = Int",
    "type": "Assignment",
    "name": "a",
    "value": {
      "type": "Int",
      "value": 30
    }
  },
  {
    "description": "b = Int",
    "type": "Assignment",
    "name": "b",
    "value": {
      "type": "Int",
      "value": 40
    }
  },
  {
    "description": "a + b",
    "type": "Plus",
    "left": {
      "type": "DefinedVariable",
      "name": "a"
    },
    "right": {
      "type": "DefinedVariable",
      "name": "b"
    }
  }
]
