PureBasic Forums - English

As for the AI integration, it took me about 3 hours to build the Gemini API directly into the IDE to generate code on the fly. Honestly, the trickiest part of that process was figuring out how to dynamically inject all the possible DGbasic commands and rules into the API request. I had to make ...

In my opinion, if Fred and the team continue with pb, in a short time it will be recognized as the best option for quick work and for any type of results.

Maybe, if they add some common sense 'modern' syntax quality of life improvements. PB can be quite verbose in certain scenarios where there ...

Reality check

No. Don't even. Use a real blog backend, there are so many of them!

Any context? Not production ready? Security holes? Battle tested?

Where is your blog located? Anyway, good job!

It is strange that the constant is still present in the Purebasic SDK (Event.h).

Yes the value is correct. Meant is is not predefined anymore. Why is another question.

Because code generator came up with it...

#PB_EventType_ReturnKey is not a valid constant anymore. Could not find its removal in version history though and why it was removed...

Any chance of per monitor dpi support?

So what MS says to do as best practice is not implemented? Yes I did see that code to mess directly with the interfaces but it doesn't make things Basic exactly. Error prone too. Out of the box the PB gadget provides the bare basics at the moment. Basically ;)
