Wouldn't an offline client being connected to the web IDE defeat the purpose of being offline?

Well i don't think so. You're running a browser on your computer so why can't you also have a program running in the background that receives the code and compiles and runs it on your own pc.

What if the user has no Internet access at all, though?

Then he obviously compiles offline entirely.

Ah ok, I thought you required an always-online connection like certain game consoles and games.

Lol of course not. I am trying to avoid it being online altogether. The web ide wouldn't really offer much compared to an offline one anyways.

Of course Claw itself will get internet functionality on some platforms that support it.

Which kind of Internet functionality would it have on platforms like Android?

On the PC, Android and the ESP 8266 it would have full sockets support and a built-in dhcp client.
There might be a webserver too.

UPDATE:

I have just launched the official website to http://claw.muessigb.net/!
While it is still quite light when it comes to content, I will add more soon

So online multiplayer or highscore upload possibilities? Also nice site

Thanks

And yes, this is absolutely possible

That's nice. I think if such feature is implemented then it should maybe allow people to upload highscores or data on the site they want, using an API or something, though. But that would probably be very hard to implement and not as necessary as the language features itself. So it's better to focus on the non-online features first I guess.

Well even though I don't plan to include too much functionality into the network module, it should still be quite easy to get something to work.

BUMP.

I am making good progress with the assembler again and might even be able to finish it, before going on vacation.
Currently there aren't many things anymore that need to be finished. Mainly the instructions compiler,
the file builder, the commandline arguments and a small part of the expression evaluator still needs to be done.

Nice. I wish you good luck. Which commands will be included before your vacations?
