A '''language developer''' is a company or individual that develops and distributes a programming language. This includes '''vendors''', companies that sell an APL implementation, as well as organizations and individuals that develop free implementations.
:''This article lists notable language developers only. For all APL dialects including those without notable developers, see [[Timeline of APL dialects]]. To choose a dialect for use today, consider the article on [[running APL]].''


Not all developers have dedicated pages as they may not have significant involvement in the APL world. This is particularly true of early APL vendors, since in the [[wikipedia:Mainframe computer|mainframe]] era APL implementations were written in machine code for a particular architecture. Many hardware vendors implemented their own version of a dialect like [[APL.SV]] but did not contribute significantly to APL design.
A language developer is an organization or individual that develops and distributes a programming language. This includes vendors, which are companies that sell APL implementations, as well as developers of free implementations. In the [[wikipedia:Mainframe computer|mainframe]] era it was common for hardware vendors to create APL implementations in machine code for their particular architecture. Developers active today use portable languages in order to support multiple architectures.
