About:
Simply Fortran is a complete Fortran development environment built around the GNU Fortran compiler. It provides an integrated editor, compiler, and debugger specifically tailored for scientific and engineering applications. The environment simplifies the process of writing, compiling, and debugging Fortran code with minimal setup.
Key Features:
  • Integrated development environment with syntax-aware editor
  • Built-in debugger for Fortran 77 through 2008 standards
  • Project management and dependency handling
  • Cross-platform support (Windows, macOS, Linux)
Use Cases:
  • Scientific computing and numerical analysis
  • Engineering simulation and modeling
  • Academic research requiring Fortran code development
Alternatives:
  • gfortran – Command-line compiler only, lacks integrated IDE features
  • Visual Studio Code + Fortran extensions – More flexible but requires manual configuration
