NS BASIC Announces NS Basic/App Studio 1.1

Now VB developers can create apps for iPhone, iPad and Android

February 01, 2011 -- NS BASIC Corporation today announced NS Basic/App Studio 1.1, an improved version of the easy to use rapid application development tool. With a look and feel similar to Microsoft's Visual Basic, it is enabling many developers to create applications for iPhone, iPad and Android devices.

"We have incorporated over 150 improvements and fixes since 1.0", said George Henne, President of NS BASIC Corporation. "The product has come a long way in a short time."

Major improvements include PhoneGap support, the use of JavaScript in addition to BASIC as a development language, audio and video playback support, websocket and http communications, and accelerometer support.

NS Basic/App Studio is a complete, easy to use BASIC development environment for iPhone, iPad and Android devices, with a familiar look and feel. NS Basic/App Studio provides a full, modern implementation of BASIC, with proper subroutines, user defined data types and event driven execution. The development environment runs on a Windows desktop.

NS Basic/App Studio includes over 150 statements and functions. Support is provided for SQLite, geolocation, graphics and more. A full set of standard screen input and output objects and dialog boxes are included. A 200 page Handbook, Tutorials and lots of sample code are included.

The environment features a Design Screen, which allows you to graphically lay out your objects, set their properties and write code that responds to and controls them.

The execution framework is based on JavaScript, HTML5 and WebKit. While knowledge of these technologies is not required, they give NS Basic/App Studio considerable power under the hood. They also give NS Basic/App Studio apps portability to platforms supporting these technologies.
