Getting started

First, download the HaxPro IDE or open your preferred IDE and install the HaxPro CLI.

Create a new project

In the HaxPro IDE, press New.

Or, open your preferred IDE and a command prompt.

In the command prompt, type

hax init {name}

Make sure you replace {name} with the name of your project!

Type to start coding!

Import basic packages

Start by using use: to import some basic packages.

use: haxpro.main
use: haxpro.ui

• use: haxpro.main imports the basic function and object of the language.

• use: haxpro.ui imports the built-in UI package of HaxPro. The UI can be created in the UI Editor in the HaxPro IDE.

Then, we will use the write: to print some text to the screen. Note: the write: function comes from haxpro.ui

Finally, we will write Hello World!

use: haxpro.main
use: haxpro.ui

write: "Hello World!"

You’re done, let’s test it!

Testing your project

To test your project in the HaxPro IDE, press Run.

Or, type in the command prompt:

You should end up with this:
