- Xojo - Build Native, Cross-Platform Apps. Rapid application development for Desktop, Web, Mobile & Raspberry Pi. Develop on macOS, Windows, or Linux.
- Yabasic - a traditional basic-interpreter. It comes with goto and various loops and allows to define subroutines and libraries. It does simple graphics and printing. Yabasic can call out to libraries written in C and allows to create standalone programs. Yabasic runs under Unix and Windows and has a comprehensive documentation; it is small, simple, open-source and free.
- endbasic - BASIC environment with a REPL, a web interface, and RPi support written in Rust.
- RemObjects Mercury - Mercury is an implementation of the BASIC programming language that is fully code-compatible with Microsoft Visual Basic.NET™ but takes it to the next level, and to new horizons.
- BaCon - a free BASIC to C translator for Unix-based systems, which runs on most Unix/Linux/BSD platforms, including MacOSX. It intends to be a programming aid in creating tools which can be compiled on different platforms (including 64-bit environments) while trying to revive the days of the good old BASIC.
- BASIC-256 - an easy-to-use version of BASIC designed to teach anybody how to program. A built-in graphics mode lets them draw pictures on screen in minutes, and a set of easy-to-follow tutorials introduce programming concepts through fun exercises.

- Chipmunk Basic - an interpreter for the BASIC Programming Language. It runs on multiple OS platforms and is reasonably fast for a pure interpreter. Chipmunk Basic presents a traditional (vintage) terminal-command-line programming environment and supports a simple, old-fashioned, and easy-to-learn dialect of the Basic Programming Language. (Line numbers are required when using the built-in command-line console, but are not required in Basic programs written using an external text editor.) The language also supports a few advanced extensions. Free for educational and personal use.
