A question. (sorry if too off-topic)
#1
Are we able to post GitHub links to repos that are either related to Small Basic or have Small Basic programs?

Yes, anything related to Small Basic is fine.

Thanks! It's because I am making a HTML-based project that runs on a browser that is related to the SB WinForms extension, it's a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor, though. (it's because Small Basic is quite limited, so I decided to go w/ JavaScript)

Cool, the difficulty with JS may be communicating with the PC, e.g. accessing files or running from libraries have significant security limitations from a browser rather than an application.

The only solution might be embedding Express.js (JS server-side lib) packages on the GitHub repo, or maybe use built-in JS functions to let the user manually save a file, or manually open a file.

But instead of interacting w/ libs I'd use 98.css to simulate WinForms within the WYSIWYG editor

Wait, I forgot that Electron.js web apps can access the filesystem, but though they consume more memory than actual native apps. (Electron.js is used for PWA-like HTML web apps)
