I've been working as a software engineer since 2016. I've always had side projects that I would work on outside of my job. At first, it was just web games. But in 2021, I took an interest in programming languages and started making my own. When I got laid off from my job in late 2023 (budget cuts according to my employer), I decided to focus on becoming an independent developer and being able to monetize my own software.

Since I was working on programming languages, my plan was to make a commercial grade programming language. Monetizing it would be difficult since there are so many free and open source programming languages out there. The only way I could think to stand out was to make something that hasn't been made before. General purpose programming languages DO exist; Visual programming languages DO exist. As far as I know, general purpose, visual programming languages DO NOT exist. So, that is what I decided to create.

I wrote a blog on my website <https://temware.site/html/blogs/procasm_justification.html> talking about how ProcASM works and some justifications on why developers and companies would consider using it. There is documentation <https://procasm.temware.site/documentation.html> describing ProcASM's concepts in more detail. And, there is a manual <https://procasm.temware.site/manual.html> that describes how to use application itself.

I have examples on the website <https://procasm.temware.site/procedure_view.html> showcasing how procedures are displayed in ProcASM. The images on that page are procedures, created in ProcASM, that were exported to SVG files from ProcASM.

You can try out ProcASM for free in your browser here: <https://procasm.temware.site/demo.html>

If you just want to see examples in ProcASM, use the links below to load projects in the demo.

Sample Project: <https://procasm.temware.site/demo.html?sampleProject=https%3...> Execute the Procedures: *Fibonacci*, *Test: Fizz Buzz*, and *Guess Number* to get an idea on how ProcASM works.

Network Project: <https://procasm.temware.site/demo.html?sampleProject=https%3...> This project contains examples of TCP clients and servers. If your using the browser version, you can load the project and view the procedures. However, you cannot execute any of the procedures in this project since they rely on native dynamic libraries which can't be executed in the browser. If you are using the desktop version, you can execute the procedures: Test TCP Client, Test TCP Server, and Test HTTP Server. This page <https://procasm.temware.site/getting_started.html?show=netwo...> can help you with compiling a dynamic library on you machine.

Support Forum Project: <https://procasm.temware.site/demo.html?sampleProject=https%3...> To ensure that ProcASM was suitable for software development, I decided to create something non-trivial with it; the back-end for the support forum <https://forum-procasm.temware.site>. The project was transpiled to C code using ProcASM (available only for the desktop versions). Then, that C code was compiled on a FreeBSD machine to generate an executable. That executable is running on a FreeBSD server. The *Server* procedure is the *main* procedure for the application. The dynamic library is not available. So, you can only view the procedures in this project.
