The latest version of Windows brought us the new Fluent Design System, a revamp of Windows Metro that includes…
Lire la suitePython and Delphi are both powerful programming languages. Delphi, for instance, provides easy-to-use features compared to other languages which make it ideal for most windows application development. Not just it provides clear syntax, but it also offers an easy drag-and-drop system that enables users to build GUI software relatively much faster. Python, on the other hand, is another powerful and…

Lire la suiteThe VCL or the Visual Component Library, as we all know, is still the best library for windows app development. While the FireMonkey framework provides wider options for developers, especially when designing or building cross-platform apps, VCL is already a well-established and mature framework that offers a huge library of visual components and a great collection of 3rd party components….
Lire la suiteVCL has always been part of native windows development specifically for developing user interfaces for Microsoft applications. While this GUI framework comes with a huge library of visual components and a robust collection of 3rd party components, it only supports Windows-based development. The FireMonkey framework, on the other hand, is designed for building multi-device cross platform apps including all the…
