We may not have the syntax to write multi-threaded code yet, but that can't stop us from creating multiple threads in the twinBASIC Debug Console.

twinBASIC supports generic objects! Let's dig into the details with a practical example.

CAUTION! twinBASIC is a work-in-progress. To avoid frustration, learn what's not working *before* you start playing with it.

The difference between 100% compatible and 99% compatible is way more than 1%.

There's even more new syntax in twinBASIC, including the IsNot operator, initializing on declare, and augmented assignment operators.

twinBASIC takes a page out of the RubberduckVBA book, using code comment "annotations" to generate real-time, IntelliSense-integrated documentation.

Let's cover some more new syntax in twinBASIC, including parameterized class constructors, method overloading, and return syntax for functions.

Let's cover some new syntax in twinBASIC, including "AndAlso/OrElse"; the ternary If() operator; and "Continue For" and its cousins.

Okay, twinBASIC. It's time to make yourself useful.

Experienced developers know that they spend more time debugging code than writing it. Luckily, twinBASIC has some capable debugging tools.

Let's explore three more features of the code writing experience in TwinBasic: Code folding, Inline parameter hints, and Outline view.

Let's explore three features of the code writing experience in TwinBasic: IntelliSense, Go to definition, and Semantic Highlighting.

Many a fledgling programming language has died an early, quiet death at the hands of poor tooling. TwinBasic looks to avoid that fate with robust VS Code support.
