Jerry here… you old-timers should remember me… I was president for about a decade give or take. Anyway… I have been building with the Raspberry Pi and using GAMBAS as my language. It is very similar to Visual Basic and quite powerful.
The biggest draw for me is the ease at which I can create graphical interfaces.
If you are interested… here is my playlist… more videos on the way.
This will show up like a single video… but in the upper-right corner are three lines… click that and you will get the whole playlist so you can watch all the videos.
