Apple ][ BASIC in the Browser

Imagesource: https://paleotronic.com/

Melody and April Ayres-Griffiths from Paleotronic Magazine are always good for a real surprise.

After a somewhat longer break they are back with two projects, that might be more than interesting for friends of Apple ][.

Number #1 is their new Applesoft BASIC Editor. The WebAssembly implementation integrates a source code editor with a runtime environment, where you can directly start and run BASIC programs. Examples are available in 18 different categories, and invite to browse and play.

The second project is called Merlin and is virtually the same thing, but not for BASIC, but for assembler. Your very own work consisting of a an ordered collection of mnemonics, addresses and data bytes can be assembled directly into the virtual RAM and executed afterwards.

Quite a good number of Apple ][ emulators exists out there. But hardly any solution is so easy to use and fast to start. Here you can find all details about both.

Nice work.
