> Outside of Scratch most programming has incredibly obnoxious environments to setup.
I am making a programming langauge and environment to address this. My target is to match the QBasic experience. A video screen capture of the old Paratrooper game running in the IDE..

I am on a similar quest with https://hackage.haskell.org/package/spade
But it is not bare metal yet and it is not BASIC.

Never heard until now. Looks interesting. Thanks for sharing, but is it available now?

Reminds me of this [1] I made back in 2005 in Flash action script, thankfully bought back to life by Ruffle [2].
You can fix the ends of the string by pressing space. When both ends are fixed, you can you can drag the beads and release them.
No big deal, but hey I was quite happy with myself back then..

I am also doing something similar here [1]. But I decided to NOT use BASIC as the language. Instead I implemented a new language with more modern features like foreach loops, closures and a less verbose syntax etc. But the focus is still on getting the same IDE experience as QBasic IDE as well as the graphics/sound capabilities as the good old QBasic. Another priority was the availability of built in documentation help with example, which was also a great thing about QBasic.
Not being able to run in the browser is a purposeful choice I made. I want the users to distance themselves from the browser (which I think is an abstraction that is best avoided in the context).
You can take a peek here [2] where you can see a video demo of the IDE loaded with the program for a partial clone of the paratrooper game.

> I use ledger for plaintext accounting for both personal and business and sync of data is slightly annoying..
I made this to solve it https://sras.me/accounts/
Feel free to use it as it stores data on your browser's local storage only. For syncing between devices, you would be able to use Google firebase's free tier and export your accounts (after compressing and encrypting) there and import from another device. Let me know if you want to try it..

> I made one of these too, but a minimal/fast HTML/CSS/JS web app
Same story here. But not sure if yours had a backend. Mine did not have one and stored everything on the browser datastore, but could export it to some free json hosting service after encrypting and compression so that it can be synced to other devices and used from them as well.
Was not aware of anything that did the same, thought it would be useful (mostly because it would be totally free to use, could be accessed from multiple devices and respected user privacy) and shared here couple of days back.
Zero interest! Ha ha. At least I didn't spend a lot of resources on it and made it for my own use. It have been working well for me for many years.
