How to edit/compile/link programs on a Linux desktop?

We're glad you came by, but you might find what you're looking for elsewhere. TI-Basic Developer is not the site it once was. While its information on commands and other calculator features remains almost second-to-none, its forum, archives, and even hosting service, Wikidot, have been decaying for years. The calculator community would love to see what you're working on, or help you in your next coding adventure, but TI-Basic Developer is no longer the place to do it. Instead, you should head over to Cemetech (primarily American) or TI-Planet (primarily international). Both are active, well-established forums with their own archives, chatrooms, reference material, and abundant coding tools and resources. We'll see you there, we hope.

I have the CX CAS version and I run Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on a laptop. What are the available resources for writing and testing programs on my computer, and then uploading to my calculator?

I have the CX CAS version and I run Ubuntu 18.04 LTS on a laptop. I'm sure there is way to port TI software onto a linux computer with a program like Wine, but I don't think I could If I wanted to because I have long since lost the product-key. I have some experience writing programs in C, but I have no idea how to compile and run a TI-BASIC program on a computer. Are there any editors like notepad++ or Sublime? Is there a compiler like GCC that could take a regular text file and compile TI-BASIC source code? Then what would I need to run that code on my laptop, and then upload to my handheld?

There is the TiLP. I have not personally tried it out on Ubuntu since I have a dual-boot with Windows I can switch to for TI-Connect CE.
