Q: What platforms can run Pixilang programs?

A: Pixilang runs on Android, Windows, Linux, macOS and bare-metal embedded devices. The same source code compiles to byte-code that is interpreted by the Pixilang virtual machine on each target.

Q: Which file extension should I use for Pixilang source files?

A: The manual lists .pixi as the primary extension; .txt and .pixicode are also accepted. Compiled byte-code files have no public extension.

Q: Is Pixilang open source?

A: Yes. Since 24 Dec 2012 the language is released under the MIT License; earlier releases were under BSD and GPL licenses.

Q: How does Pixilang compare to Processing or P5.js?

A: Pixilang is lighter, compiles to byte-code, and targets both desktop and mobile from the same codebase, whereas Processing and P5.js are Java- or JavaScript-based and require separate adaptations for mobile.
