V vs twinBASIC

V is easier than C and fast like C.

Can import C libraries, structs, and headers.

Compile to many OSes.

V is simple and powerful.

Multi-OS GUI creation is more integrated into the language than others.

Highly understandable language.

V has Sum Types.

V has generics.

V has closures, which gives the user additional options and usefulness.

V is very safe.

Follows the philosophy that there should be only one way to do something, as opposed to multi-paradigm languages like C++.

Can run functions concurrently that communicate over channels.

Compiles programs fast, less waiting around, so more productive and fun.

Just check the V Discord channel or their GitHub Discussions and you will see by yourself.

Can add Assembly code.

Any code that runs in VB6 will run in twinBASIC (once v1 is released). Code that runs in VBA will also run in twinBASIC, though you need to account for any dependencies on the host application's object model (e.g., the Excel or Access Application object).

The lack of a runtime dependency makes twinBASIC applications very lightweight and portable. Additionally, compiled executables only include necessary code from any referenced libraries. The classic "Hello, World" program compiles down to an 8 KB .exe with no external dependencies.

Can be used to extend VBA functionality by compiling standard and ActiveX DLLs in both 32 and 64bit.

64bit compilation is supported, as well as 32bit.

At last there is a replacement for Microsoft VB6 - and for VBA too - twinBASIC programming.
