A recreation of the classic Visual Basic 6 IDE and language written in C# using the Avalonia UI framework. It supports a visual designer, VB6-compatible project files, and running projects with limited VB6 language support, available as a desktop app or in the browser.
Use cases
- run classic Visual Basic 6 projects on modern operating systems
- try the VB6 IDE in a browser without installing anything
- edit VB6 forms with a visual designer
- load and save VB6-compatible project files
- learn how the classic VB6 IDE worked
- build simple VB6-style apps cross-platform
When to choose
- you want a nostalgic or educational recreation of the VB6 development experience
- you need to open or run simple VB6 projects on Linux, macOS, or in a browser
- you want a free, open-source, MIT-licensed VB6-like IDE
When to avoid
- you need full, production-grade VB6 language compatibility
- you are maintaining legacy VB6 business applications that require exact runtime behavior
- you need commercial support or guaranteed correctness
