The New Deal IDE

The New Deal Integrated Development Environment (IDE) consists of a number of New Deal programs which allow you to develop NewBASIC Applications.

As you create NewBASIC programs, you will spend most of your time using the NewBASIC Builder application. The Builder allows you to put together a NewBASIC application: visually arranging UI gadgetry, writing custom BASIC code, and running your program in the emulator. This chapter introduces you to the features of the Builder.
