Binaries for Linux (AppImage), macOS, and Windows are available via GitHub.
QT6 is porting BASIC-256 (based on KidBASIC) to WebAssembly for browser and multi‑platform use, including MacOS Apple Silicon and Raspberry Pi. The beta port adds graphics, 64‑bit variables, and other conveniences, but the web version is hardware‑restricted (no serial ports, etc.).

Lubuntu 24.04 LTS, the lightweight Ubuntu Linux spin with LXQt desktop, plans to introduce an optional Wayland session in its upcoming release in April.

Other improvements for Lubuntu 24.04 LTS include enhancements to the Calamares installer, a GUI for configuring Bluetooth devices, Redshift support, and new theming work.
