DownloadGCBASIC is an open-source BASIC compiler for 8 bit Microchip PIC and Atmel AVR microcontrollers. Also included in the project is Graphical GCBASIC, an icon based editor for GCBASIC programs.
This is a continuous release project. The latest release is always available. This will give you the most complete development toolchain to create and program 8-bit PIC, AVR and LGT microcontrollers.
We have added new capabilities that make GCBASIC the easiest tool set available - supporting over 1300's microcontrollers with tools to make this fun and simple.
Please see the download section for your options. We have two IDEs, we have just the compiler and we have a minimal install - it is your choice.
Please see the homepage here: http://gcbasic.sourceforge.net and also see http://gcbasic.sourceforge.net/download.html for other GCBasic download options.

I absolutely love GCBasic. The software has made it easy for someone like me, a non programmer to enjoy the electronics hobby with minimum frustration. Microcontroller projects can be coded easily and quickly even for beginners like myself. Software is easy to use and does pretty much anything I would ever need. I appreciate everyone's effort who works on GCBasic!

A great help to program PIC processors.Reply from GCBASICPosted 2024-03-30
GREAT TO GET THIS POSITIVE FEEDBACK! -
First time I had contact to GCB is now 8 years ago. I did multiple projects with GCB. As time went by, it became more and more comfortable and it's a nice complement for doing some works with micro processors. I still love it. Thanks to Evan and his crew! Very excellent jobs done!Reply from GCBASICPosted 2023-12-19
Thank you. -
A brilliant IDE, very versatile. In a previous life I programmed PIC devices using assembler but with the latest devices (and my age - 79) this is no longer possible so a high level language became necessary. Well done to all concerned.Reply from GCBASICPosted 2023-11-22
Thank you!! A great review. -
I'm an ancient assembler PIC programmer (MPLAB/X) revisiting the tech as a hobby. Wanted higher level language (used GWbasic/VB a lot in a previous life) - so Basic for Pic as I don't 'do' C. Great to find you! Installed ok - first program ok, pickit2 worked fine on PIC16F690 on a dust-removed LPC demo board. I've been using GCB only 2 days, so very newbie review only: 1) change to Pic-as by Microchip has me wondering - so wanted to jump from gcasm to mpasm to pic-as. Took me a few hours to locate how to do it - main menus are text, prog menus are icons, assembler selection are in tabs (simply didn't spot them) - would prefer a consistent user interface. I pin "Edit programmer preferences" to the top, but this isn't retained when I re-open GCB. 2) I open new project and GCB inserts an info file for program structure - but half of it is in German - now trying to find what/why this is and edit it. So far it's been finnicky to configure stuff for a (very) newbie, but overall I'm keen to use it, just thought I'd give some initial feedback. Really looking forward to a Linux flavour (Debian/Mint/Ubuntu) sometime. Thanks for GCB + IDE, I am very grateful for your efforts.Reply from GCBASICPosted 2023-03-08
