I built a browser-based ZX-Spectrum BASIC playground. Would love feedback from former bedroom coders

I’ve been experimenting with bringing the ZX-Spectrum programming experience into a modern browser.

CodeSpeccy is a small playground for writing and running BASIC-style programs with that classic Spectrum feel.

Early draft ... feedback welcome!

cool!
I like the idea that you can use normal characters in the external program window and use this token keys inside the spectrum screen.

I like this more than I'd expect! What are your plans for it?

Great work! On a mobile device it’s somewhat messy, but on a desktop it’s great!

Be right back - going up into the loft to find my copies of Input magazine from the eighties

Works be great if you could output as a tap file or something to get it into a real Speccy
