The future of programming is probably not desktop but web, programs run in a browser. That means Javascript, PHP, or some future language such as Google Dart. I never was able to get PHP happening on my computer. Dart looks like another complexicated language.
Um, PHP? PHP is not the web. Some people use it to write web applications, but it's just a small percentage of websites. With euweb you can develop blazingly fast web applications in Euphoria making use of HTML, HTML5, AJAX, JavaScript, jQuery, YUI and just about any other HTML technology available.
Benchmarking Euphoria on the web compared to PHP on the web is almost laughable how much faster Euphoria is for that task, and easier!

EuWeb seems to not be ready yet.

EuWeb is the generic name given to the software that runs OpenEuphoria.org. The software is written in Euphoria. It provides news, forums, wiki, various static pages, tickets, search, categorization and a user system to secure it all. It is hoped that one day it will be polished enough to be a product others can download and use for their own projects.
When will I be able to write something using EuWeb that can be run in firefox and chrome?
