The second generation of the Programming Without Coding Technology (PWCT) software.
Using PWCT, A novice programmer can learn the basics of computer programming and how to create useful applications and games. The software is designed to reduce the learning curve and encourage more people to learn about programming. Also, this version is powered by the new Ring programming language and provide professional Ring developers with a powerful and modern visual programming environment.
Features:
- Visual Programming using Goal Designer (Steps Editor) instead of Code Editor
- Rich comments (Add images, tables, etc.) to the application design
- Form Designer to design the application user interface (WYSIWYG)
- The Time Machine to play programs as movie and run programs in the past
- Interactive Visualization from textual source code written in Ring language
- Autocomplete
- Different styles and themes
- Open many visual source files at the same time
- Open many interaction pages (data-entry forums) at the same time
- Support generating Ring source code
- Support importing Ring source code
- Connect to any database using ODBC
- Native support for SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL
- Develop Apps for Drawing & Simulation
- Develop Card Games
- Develop desktop applications for Windows, Linux and macOS
- Develop 2D Games
- Create classic/retro games with tile maps (Support Tilengine)
- Develop Web applications
- Comes with many samples and applications

PWCT is a refreshing entry into the field of easier to use products for conceptualizing an idea into an actual working application. PWCT should be considered an easier transition into the world of understanding what it is to develop an application. With its visual approach to programming it makes the understanding of what is required and how to apply it less of a burden on people who want to create applications.
How does it do this? It provides a list of many of the building pieces called components in PWCT that allow you to apply everything from declaring variables to interfacing with files or databases. Does this require you to understand the concepts of developing applications? Yes, it does but the learning curve to gain this knowledge is made easier by PWCT’s visual approach to putting the application together.
It closely resembles the idea put forth by Legos the popular toys that provide a way to build anything you can imagine. Although Legos will allow you to build complex building structures it does require you to understand building principles to accomplish that goal. However, like Legos there is little, or no knowledge required to get started and begin to build something that works and bring you satisfaction that it is indeed possible to take an idea from concept to reality with the right tools.
PWCT is supported by a team of dedicated professionals who are very responsive to the questions and needs of their community. Each day a new tutorial is being created to help new users of this product to create something that works while learning programming concepts at the same time. The community is strong as well for a new product with some of its members providing tutorials based on the learning they are doing of PWCT to assist others who might be helped by a different perspective; that of someone learning the product as they are.
The price point to dive into this development environment is very inexpensive currently compared to other integrated development environments or tools. What can you develop with it, really anything you can imagine. A personal application, something that would be sold commercially, or even a game as it supports many gaming libraries as well. As you progress your knowledge of the development process will improve. That learning process is required to have an understanding of the pieces needed to create a larger more complex application.
Achieving this though is made easier by PWCT’s approach to it. I as an owner of the tool and end-user still learning, encourage others to jump into this environment. What do you have to lose, a few dollars and a little time if it doesn’t work for you. What do you have to gain, a broader world where you now can create applications that serve your needs and allow you to gain some important skills in the world of development.

I like the concept, but I will not really use it. (And neither refund)
It's lacking one simple thing, autocomplete for imported libraries. It could scan the library folder and allow you to pick the library to include.
Another thing it could do is provide autocomplete for the included library methods.
Those are things that classical IDEs do.
I do think it's good for beginners as it ease a bit the learning process by offering less friction for the base components.
Maybe the developer can look at MPS, which would allow to do crazy stuff!

As someone who started with not much knowledge on coding, this helped me a lot. Its very smooth, it has many things to learn, and so much more.

With a few feature improvements it could be a good clickteam fusion replacement.

Its has many uses. As it grows with time it will become more powerful. Glad I purchased it.

Hello, I am a user of the first generation of "PWCT" until the last version of it. I followed all the developments of the technology until the release of the Ring language as proof of the strength of the technology in the first generation. We start the journey with the Ring language to achieve the second generation of technology, so what did we get? It is the most important aspiration, which is to convert the script into visual, organized and understandable steps, achieving readability and speed in programming, such as scanning a manuscript and converting it into a processable text, in addition to that you will save all the steps in two ways "pwct" and "ring" without forgetting the common "rform" between them in the "GUI".
As I said in the first generation, I repeat and say: "PWCT" is the best way to learn programming for young and old, and this is my conviction after my experience. I hope that anyone will try it and they will not regret it. You can refer to the link via GitHub :

As someone who knows next to nothing about coding. I'm going into this with a huge belly flop. I'm personally having no luck with it, but I'm still learning, I've noticed a few minor problems with the layout. To me It looks like it has a lot of potential to be something amazing. I just don't think I'm ready yet. I'm giving it a thumbs up for now, cause it seems the creator wants this to work.
For now I'm going to sit on it, and let some time grow with it, and then I'll start watching some youtube videos on it to learn more. I believe people will start making some to show it has the potential to be awesome.
