User reviews

Nice app, with a god range of features.

Originally I downloaded this app, and after playing with it for a while, I ponied up the cash and purchased the full version.

If you've ever wanted to program the Microbit off line, then this is one of the only ways to do it. All other tools I have seen have been web portals to compile code, so kudos to this dev for making an off line compiler

Try it and see what you think.
