It may not have gone completely unnoticed that in the last weeks there has been a springing up like mushrooms of programming tools for the NXT in the community - in particular ones that enable you to remotely control the NXT from your PC seem to come into being every week in any imaginable language (while there still is a small set only that actually runs on the NXT).
Here's my overview:
Running on the NXT brick:
Which one are you actually using?
Which ones do you particularly like?
What's your dream of a NXT programming environment?
As for me, I'm anxious to see

Here's my overview:
Running on the NXT brick:
- NXT-G (official LEGO NXT IDE, contained in the kit)
- ROBOLAB (also by LEGO)
- NBC (Assembler style)
- RobotC (C)
- NeXTTool and BrickTool
- Microsoft Robotics Studio (C#/.NET)
- ICommand (Java)
- Visual Lego (.NET)
- NXT Perl (Perl)
- ruby-nxt (Ruby)
- LibNXT (C)
- NXTender (Java)
Which one are you actually using?
Which ones do you particularly like?
What's your dream of a NXT programming environment?
As for me, I'm anxious to see
- a Java VM running on the NXT
- another Model-Driven NXT development environment with a NXT-specific domain language (as a matter of fact, NXT-G is such a one, but I'd like to see some different concepts implemented)
