What is Reddit's opinion of LiveCode?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Neither. I bet my left boob it's just a training wheel since its under MaGIC free coding course for youth under Blue Ocean. Basically a drag and drop program with very lightweight coding.

Over 200 school was chosen for the program all over Malaysia.

To create an identity, while in Preferences>Accounts, select your apple id (add it if it isn't there), then View Details. You'll need to create a Signing Identity for iOS Development. That'll get you the identities folder.

Next, try this to create a provisioning profile. Keep in mind, once you've gotten to the "Fix Issues" step you're done (you don't need to do Step 9, aside from closing Xcode). Now when you go back and export the developer profile, it should contain everything you need. Hope this helps.

I think LiveCode is worth a look. It's a modern variant of Hypercard that can create apps that run on Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS, Android, or HTML5. There's a commercial version and an open source community version.

SuperCard is a bit of an odd duck these days. It's a modern successor to Hypercard like Livecode is. And, where Livecode is cross platform (Mac, Win, Lin, iOS, Android, HTML5), SuperCard focuses solely on macOS development.

It's still a 32 bit Carbon app that is backward compatible to Mac OS X 10.4 (although some features require 10.5 or newer). Because it's still Carbon and it's still 32 bit (there is no such thing as a 64 bit Carbon app, despite Steve Jobs claim that Carbon would always remain a first class technology within macOS) its, and presumably all Carbon apps', future is in question.

In a day and age when mobile and web are increasingly becoming more important than desktop development, it's strange for a development environment to focus solely on desktop and on one OS. However, for anyone still keeping a Hypercard application or stack alive (via old hardware or emulation), SuperCard offers a way forward- at least for the time being. Or, if you want a development environment that is miles easier than Xcode and you want to focus on macOS development, SuperCard might be your ticket.

Lastly, and I'm not affiliated with Solutions Etc., just mentioning this, it is 20% off until May 31.

Don't know if you saw these, but the deployment for HTML 5 can be found here: https://livecode.com/docs/9-6-1/deployment/deploying-your-application/

And it included this link in that same section: https://lessons.livecode.com/m/4071/l/800867-how-do-i-put-my-first-app-on-the-web

SuperCard has been around since the HyperCard days and is closest to the original product with the addition of color and some other goodies.

LiveCode takes the paradigm to full on programming - you can build desktop and mobile apps with it. It goes well beyond the original stack paradigm.

LiveCode is probably your best bet in 2018. It is the only Hypercard clone that runs on all major modern environments.

If you have an older system, or an emulator you can download it here, this is the last stable release from 1998: https://www.macintoshrepository.org/2632-hypercard-2-4

How to run older software: https://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac-software/emulation-on-mac-our-guide-macos-emulators-for-retro-gaming-3654729/

Reminds me of Apple’s long-dead HyperCard. Have you looked at LiveCode? It’s the closest thing to it that is around today.

You might save yourself some time by doing your project in LiveCode and compiling to an app.

Normally the Indy license is $499. During Covid-19 they are going a Pay-What-You-Can promotion.

LiveCode is the most widely used HyperCard/HyperTalk clone. It's a great way to learn programming and it is also a great tool for developing for multiple platforms from a single code base.

Hopefully, this will be of interest to some people here.

EDIT: As u/blight231 points out, this will auto renew at full price in 12 months. I didn't realize that when I posted this, and even though I really like LiveCode, I think this is kind of shady of them. If you take advantage of it, you will probably want to make sure and cancel before it auto renews.

Also, there is a free & open source LiveCode Community edition.

There is LiveCode (and its GPL version). They're doing a COVID-19 promo that allows you to pay what you want for the LiveCode Indy version which is a very good product. It will appeal to those that like HyperCard, but unlike HyperCard you can ship cross platform software with it.

I finally found some live code. I almost missed it cuz it look like an English specification of what to do!

sort lines of theText descending by last item of each

This is one of the many, many reasons why I cannot understand why Python is so popular (looks like a PASCAL rerun) when LiveCode already has this:

Huh, yup. Depends on what version they used:

• LiveCode Community requires code be distributed under GPL
• LiveCode Community Plus requires code be distributed under MIT
• There are no distribution restraints with a LiveCode Indy or LiveCode Business license

LiveCode is a modern HyperCard. It's what I imagine HyperCard 9 if Apple had to kept developing it and made it OpenSource. It's IDE runs on MacOS, Windows and Linux. It's app engine runs on MacOS, Windows, Linux, Android, iOS, and web HTML5.
LiveCodeScript (LCS) is extremely similar to HyperTalk but greatly expanded. They recently added a slightly lower level language called LiveCodeBuilder (LCB) which allows for easier development of add-on Libraries extensions and GUI widgets and features a Foreign Function Interface for hooking into code libraries from other languages and OS APIs. LCB sort-of reminds me a bit of Compile-It, which was a HyperCard thing for making XCMDs/XFCNs Eternal add-ons in HyperCard's own language, instead of having to use lower level languages like C or Pascal. It makes it a lot easier to make LiveCode add-ons, I hardly know any C or ObjectiveC and I was able to use it to hook into Apple's Core Audio/MIDI API's fairly easily. https://github.com/PaulMcClernan/LCB_CoreMIDI
If you miss HyperCard or just want to see what a user-centric dev environment looks like, or want to make a simple app without having to learn cryptic low-level languages then I highly recommend you check out LiveCode. It's "natural language" programming, the closest you can come to programming in plain-English.

The beauty of LiveCode is that it can be used by kids or professionals alike. It's only limited by your understanding of the platform.
