LAMP Coding is a very basic coding language being developed by PPTGames only. It's designed to create apps mostly to design them. It is all based on PPTG-EQL and is composed by actions.
​
This Coding Language is still in Experimental phase and can only be used inside the editor (edit and run projects or LAMP Apps).
PPTGames LAMP Coding Editor v1.2
What's new?
In the editor there were made some changes to the design and added new features like change the theme, replace tool. A lot of bugs were also fixed in the editor and in the code compiler. New functions were added: set the line's color and visibility of a shape.
PPTGames LAMP Coding Editor v1.1 [unstable]
What's new?
In the editor weren't made many changes. The code syntax has changed a little bit (actionN=action:function;) among others. New functions were added: set the shadow's transparency, color, blurriness, size and visibility of a shape.
