B4R, which is currently in beta, is a new development tool for Arduino.
It is part of four similar development tools: B4A - Android, B4i - iOS, B4J - desktops, servers and ARM boards and now B4R for Arduino.
B4J and B4R are completely free.
All four tools use the same programming language, B4X. B4X is a modern version of visual basic.
The beta version can be downloaded here: B4R beta is available for download! | B4X Programming Forum
You can see the tutorials here (many more will be available soon): B4R Tutorials | B4X Programming Forum

The nice thing about B4X tools is that you can quite easily create solutions with different platforms.
For example:

I hope you like it
