PureBasic is a commercially distributed procedural programming language and integrated development environment based on BASIC, developed by Fantaisie Software, with its first public Windows release on December 17, 2000. The compiler produces native executables for a range of architectures, including IA-32, x86-64, ARM32, ARM64, PowerPC and 680x0 processors, without needing external runtime libraries beyond what the operating system already provides, and it supports Windows, Linux, macOS and Raspberry Pi OS, with an earlier AmigaOS version now discontinued and partly open sourced. PureBasic uses a lifetime license model, under which a user who registers once continues to receive all future updates at no extra charge, a policy that has been in place since the first registered user in 1998.
