Seriously, though, why not use a browser based Visual Basic instead of a native app? So anyone can use it anytime.

Browser-based Visual Basic, you say? We built one! https://anvil.works/

(Mind you, our visual layout tools aren't this powerful at the HTML/CSS level. We have a fairly simple drag'n'drop system, and if you want to get lower-level than that, then you'll be editing HTML and CSS as text. Gimli looks awesome.)

yeah, I agree with this. Anvil is pretty cool and definitely a worthy VB successor

Might also try https://diasli.de for simple applets (e.g. try https://diasli.de/1658/9b4Mry7xHYs, hit 'share' -> 'duplicate' to make your own)
