About About the Boriel BASIC Project

Boriel BASIC (formerly known as ZX BASIC and Boriel ZX BASIC) is a BASIC ''cross compiler''. It will compile BASIC programs (in your PC) for your ZX Spectrum. Boriel BASIC is an SDK entirely written in python. The SDK is implemented using the PLY (Python Lex/Yacc) compiler tool. It translates BASIC to Z80 assembler code, so it is easily portable to other Z80 platforms (Amstrad CPC, MSX). Other non-Z80 targets could also be available in the future.

Boriel BASIC syntax tries to maintain as much compatibility as possible to that of Sinclair BASIC, but it also has many new features, mostly taken from FreeBASIC dialect.

Platform Availability

Boriel BASIC is available natively for Windows (32bit and 64bit) and Linux (x64). For other platforms (i.e. Mac OS) you will need to have Python 3.12+ installed in your computer and download the version with Python scripts from the Archive page.
