B4J

RAD development tool for cross platform desktop, server and IoT solutions. B4J is a 100% free development tool for desktop, server and IoT solutions. With B4J you can easily create desktop applications, console programs and server solutions. B4J apps can run on Windows, Mac, Linux and ARM boards such as Raspberry Pi. The compiled apps are standalone, without any external dependencies.
