Xojo is a modern alternative to Microsoft Visual Basic. A single language to build cross-platform apps for Windows, macOS and Linux, plus web, iOS and Raspberry Pi. With Xojo you simply develop faster.

Create 32 and 64-bit apps out of the box! Convering old VB6 projects to Xojo means more speed and flexibility, while creating a deployable product that simply works from Windows 7 to the most current Windows version without the need to install additional libraries, service packs or other components.

Powerful, Native and Cross-Platform

Xojo is more powerful than VB6 while more approachable than VB.NET. Xojo apps are compiled to native code. The run-time library is included with your applications so there is nothing additional that needs to be installed on users’ computers.

Unlike VB and Visual Studio, Xojo allows you to develop on Windows, macOS or Linux. For example, you can develop a Windows app from your Mac and vice versa. Simply stated: Xojo allows you to quickly create the apps you need.

Modernize Legacy Desktop Apps with Web and iOS

Since Xojo can create apps for so many platforms, it is a great way to modernize and update your legacy desktop apps so that you can also have web and mobile apps. With Xojo, web apps are as easy to make as desktop apps. Xojo web apps can be deployed to any server (Linux, macOS or Windows) and can also use the industry standard Apache web server.

These days mobile apps are a necessity. With Xojo, you can design your app with drag and drop using the layout editor, add your code with just one language and publish. Access the iOS-features you'd expect, like sharing panel and your photo library, and also the iPhone's hardware-based features, like motion, location and camera. Xojo makes iOS development familiar and fast.

Visual

First released in 1991, Microsoft Visual Basic was a programming environment where one could build an application by visually creating the user interface first, and then adding code. In contrast, even the smallest Visual Basic basic programs could take reams of program code to write in C or C++. Visual Basic was extremely popular for business application programming. The language itself was an interpreted BASIC dialect, however speed was maintained through the use of reusable compiled libraries (DLLs and VBX controls). These however, limited application development to Microsoft Windows.

Visual Basic easily interfaced with many database products (most notably Microsoft Access) and reporting tools (most notably Crystal Reports)

Visual Basic 3 was the most popular version under 16-bit Windows 3.1, while Visual Basic 6 was the most popular for 32-bit Windows 95/NT and later. After version 6, Visual Basic was replaced by 'Visual Basic.NET', a very incompatible product based around Microsoft's 'Dot Net' virtual machine runtime, essentially killing it off as a serious development product.

Release notes

Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0, now part of Visual Studio, was the last version of the true 'Visual Basic' product. It was extremely popular, and is still used in many businesses. It is the last that can create native 32-bit applications for Windows 9x and NT. The replacement product 'VB.NET' requires Dot Net, and changes the core basic language in such a way that it is difficult to port VB 6 applications.
