Amiga Programming
« on: December 01, 2011, 09:19:27 PM »
I am interested into jumping into programming for the Amiga. I am to be considered a total newbie in these regards.
 
Things I am looking into: PortableIE. and some kind of GCC. Is this a good programming platform to get started with? Am also looking into CubicIDE.
 
I know near nothing so any help or guidance would be most appreciated!!
 
THanks in advance

I think that PortablE is a very good choice to start with and Chris has worked hard at making it more "Newbie" friendly.  He has a website set up with forums where other programmers can post questions and answers and has prepared many tutorials for PortablE.

I would not jump into C/C++ programming yet, or spend the amount of money for CubicIDE (although I did), until you are deeper into programming and ready to choose which C/C++ environment tools you want to use.

If you wanna use PortablE, you'll need to install GCC also, because PortablE generates C++ code.
