DZX Studio, a Mac workbench for ZX Spectrum
A native macOS IDE for building, running, debugging, and publishing Sinclair BASIC and Z80 projects for 48K and 128K ZX Spectrum machines.
Field notes
The advertised workflow moves from Sinclair BASIC or Z80 source through a typed project graph, target-specific execution, debugging, tests, and TAP or WAV output. The environment also keeps Spectrum-native material in the project: SCREEN$ graphics, attributes, UDGs, drawing code, and four-note music patterns with pitch, timing, and duration. The page separates 48K and 128K machine profiles and lists macOS 13+ compatibility, while marking the release status as pending.
