jon rios Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Do I need to have Embarcadero to use uniGUI ? or can i create applications with the uniGUI installer? sorry, my experience has been with MS Access and now I want to move to web based apps but not a developer thanks for any direction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkLince Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 You need Embarcadero Delphi or Rad Studio (different flavours of the same tool). https://www.embarcadero.com/products/rad-studio/start-for-free This combination is Killer when it comes to web development, be kind to yourself and give it a go!

jon rios Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 thanks Mark, so uniGUI doesnt work alone, its an add-on for RAD Studio.. seems like an expensive proposition, unless you make money creating apps. I saw the functionality that uniGUI provides, does RAD Studio NOT provide any of those controls? What makes adding uniGUI to RAD so powerful or useful?? thanks again Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mika Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 @jon rios, you really have to learn about RAD Studio (Delphi) and uniGUI. After that it's obvious why this combination is as powerful as it is. Yes it is pretty expensive but if you're going to sell products you build, it shouldn't be too big of a problem.

Harry Rogers Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Current Delphi / RAD studio come with two Embarcadero frameworks - VCL and FireMonkey these allow you to build Windows (VCL) and 'cross platform' (FireMonkey) applications. Additionally you get a version of Intraweb (a third party extension) which allows you to build web apps - it's been around a longtime and some do build impressive stuff with it but it has never found that much traction - It's original architecture predates latest methods in Web development, though has worked hard to update in recent years. UniGUI is another third party tool for Delphi / RAD studio. It is without doubt the most productive environment you will find for producing Web Apps for someone that knows Delphi and quite possibly outside that arena also. Whilst it might look like an expensive club to get into you will get results that are hard to realise in other tools without knowing a lot of different technologies. It is a genuine paradigm shift in ease of production! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
