Our team has been busy with Second Life Script! Always thinking, tinkering and toying with new products, we can finally announce we are branching out into scripting!
Our first tip jar script is available in our webshop or on the Second Life Marketplace!
note: the marketplace version doesn’t feature the actual code as opensource! you can use it, but won’t see the scripting behind it. If you want to use the code and edit it yourself to make your own version of the tip jar: buy the file in our webshop!

For this tip jar, the Linden Script Language or, lsl, is used. It is the programming language that powers all functions in Second Life and Opensim.
The structure of lsl is largely based on java and c. You can read more about it in this tutorial on their wiki page.
