BASIC! Compiler add-on: BASIC! Super User

BASIC! Super User is a companion app to the BASIC! Compiler.
It allows to use BASIC! flavors (OliBasic, hbasic...) to compile your apps.

Android XpTools (PC)

The Android Expert Tools is a 1-click build chain for Android projects. It removes the complexity (and the Giga Bytes) of Android Studio / Gradle and leaves you in command!
It relies on Java SDK & Apache Ant (same as the old Eclipse Studio, but made up-to-date to handle recent APIs/SDKs).

With the Android XpTools you can use any editor of your choice (Notepad++, SciTE..) to modify code and XMLs, and focus on the essential: just hit the "Compile APK" button to build your project and that's all! Your APK is ready to install on any device...
