Installing Small Basic 1.2

Small Basic is free! And it teaches actual text/syntax-based programming to students! This is the only language+IDE built for that purpose! And it's free! We're excited about this. Can you tell? =^)

This guide shows you the detailed steps for installing Small Basic!

 

1-    Use your Web browser to go to Microsoft’s Small Basic website (www.smallbasic.com), and click the Download button in the upper-right corner (see Figure 1).
