A Design System for Interactive Fiction

Inform is a free app for creating works of interactive fiction, available for MacOS, Windows, Linux and Android. Inside it is a powerful programming language based on English language text. This redesigned website is part of the preparations for open-sourcing in Autumn 2019.

Many Inform authors also write with Twine, and vice versa. Inform topics are frequently aired at the Interactive Fiction Community Forum. The Inform project supports the Interactive Fiction Technology Foundation. Lastly, Emily Short’s Interactive Storytelling contains some of the best writing about the genre today, and also hosts many more links.
