Small Basic 1.3 (for Microsoft Store) available now!

  • Artikel

Small Basic 1.3 is now available to download from the Windows Store! We've got some great new features, including support for three new languages, a new Startup Help page when it loads, and of course, more bug fixes.  If you've already installed it through the Windows Store, your app will update.

NOTES:

  • Small Basic for Windows Store doesn't support Extensions
  • Small Basic 1.3 for Download Center (which does support Extensions) is coming soon

If you haven't installed the Windows Store version, never fear! Simply uninstall the old Small Basic through Control Panel, go get Small Basic on the Windows Store and install it from there.

    WHAT? No Small Basic 1.3 download for previous Windows versions? What a shame.

      Yes, we’ll update the Download Center with version 1.3, so that will be coming next. We’ll have another blog post for that, as well as full release notes. Thank you, Win-frown!

        We discussed this with LitDev and the Small Basic Community Council. They'd rather keep it as an extension. I was trying to at least migrate some of the objects into the main library, but it seems the consensus is to keep all the objects on extensions like LD.So the focus moved back toward the other efforts, shipping SB 1.3 and SB Online.

        Yes, we’ll update the Download Center with version 1.3, so that will be coming next. We’ll have another blog post for that, as well as full release notes. Thank you, EvPix. Small Basic 1.0 will still be the option for Windows XP and earlier versions. For Windows 7 and newer versions, it will be Small Basic 1.3.

    I added some notes to the blog post (and updated the post title) to clarify that this is the Windows Store release, which doesn't support Extensions. The Download Center release is in progress (that one supports extensions). Despite some solid efforts to publish the Download Center version first, the Windows Store version shipped much faster.Thanks!

    Any news on 1.3 for the download center - it has been a very long time since it was promised.

      Yes, we're working on that now. Basically, Microsoft does Hackathons once a year (in late July), so that's where the bulk of our work is done. But we also have some year-round work done as well. This year, that has been on Small Basic Online, our Small Basic Coding Clubs for girls, and our Small Basic V-Next (open source on GitHub). I'll have a blog post that explains all that more.Just to be clear, we said/wrote that we're working on it and we're planning to publish it. Both of those aspects are true. We've tried a few times since last year, and we're making a very big effort this year, with our 2018 Hackathon.
