PureBasic Forums - English

Hello

I'd like to write a small Windows GUI application in Purebasic. I didn't see the answer in the FAQ: Am I correct in guessing that PureBasic is a text-based language, and if I want to write a Windows application, I'll need to call the Win32 API, eg. CreateWindow(), etc.?

Thank you.

Not at all. You only need the Windows API if you want one of the gadgets to do something that Purebasic doesn't support natively. You can write quite a robust and powerful application with no API at all.

Hello littlebigman,

Wellcome on Board

if you like to see some GUI applications with pure PureBasic than open & run e.g. some of the gadget-examples you'll find in the purebasic/examples/sources folder.

greetings ~ Vera

Thanks everyone.
