Small Visual Basic (sVB) is an educational programming language, created by Eng. Mohammad Hamdy as an evolved version of Microsoft Small Basic (SB). It is meant to be easier and more powerful at the same time, to introduce programming basics to kids and beginners of any age, provided that they can use the English keyboard on the Windows OS.

The BASIC programming language turns 60
I seem to remember some pretty serious (as in actual paid) programs written in QuickBASIC - the compiled version of QBASIC.
Lots and lots of 'business middleware' was written in various forms of BASIC, the most famous being VBA, but also quite a bit in things like QuickBASIC in an older period.
https://qb64.com keeps the dream alive.

Ask HN: Whats the modern day equivalent of 80s computer for kids to explore?
Most people are posting links to hardware, but in my mind, this is a software question. Maybe one of those BASIC interpreters with an integrated IDE, the way that QBASIC used to be on older Windows versions?
QB64 is the modern equivalent: https://qb64.com/
Your kids won't literally need to navigate the command line to launch the games. But I think that editing config files to "hack" the game is still on the table :-)

Many, really. QuickBASIC is very complete. You can easily install it in DosBOX to take a look, or download QB64 (https://qb64.com/) for a similar but more modern experience.
Some specifics that are in my mind as "must haves" are user-defined functions, file I/O, records (aka structs), syntax checking / interactive help in the editor...

Not counting Visual Basic, I haven't used or even seen a QBasic IDE since this until just yesterday, I downloaded the latest.
https://qb64.com/ does actually get updated :)

Can anyone recommend some good free tools for programming, debugging, and virtualization on Ubuntu?
OpenWatcom is a very nice compiler and debugger. Another one is QB64.

Basic to C++
QB64 compiles QBasic to either C or C++; not sure which. But it might not be useful for generating standalone C++ code.

Small Visual Basic
For my 9-year-old boy, I picked QB64 [1] and things are going very well. The experience is identical to old QBasic, but with a saner language that encourages to declare the type of variables.
At the moment we are following [2], which seems perfect for a child of that age.
[1] https://github.com/QB64Official/qb64 is the repo to follow: after the dramatic split of the dev community happened in 2022, the older one is not used anymore.
