I love modern FreePascal with Lazarus; I wish there were more recent books about it, but it's a wonderful language and IDE.
I really hope people here give it a shot.
- sysrpl 11y agoAlthough there is plenty of information out there, I am working on making tutorials, guides, a new language reference, and even some lexical diagrams in SVG: http://www.getlazarus.org/learn/language/lexical/ http://www.getlazarus.org/learn/language/lexical/
- analognoise 11y agoAgreed but it isn't curated information - I bought a bunch of old Pascal books but finding newer info that isn't Delphi specific is pretty damn hard - a set of design pattern books for FPC guis would be amazing. The forums are good though!
- fredmorcos 11y agoCould you refer me to good modern resources? I am fluent in C programming and would really like to get started with Pascal and Object Pascal using FPC and Lazarus. I really think the language adds a lot of nice things compared to C without sacrificing C's advantages and without becoming C++. The only problem I'm currently facing is finding resources to learn.
- Gys 11y agoThe video on the Application Explorer shows a Lazarus IDE 1.7 ?! Great diagrams, BTW ! Love the overall very modern look of the website.
- sysrpl 11y agoRegarding 1.7, I distribute builds based on the trunk revision which is usually pretty far ahead of the release versions. Thanks for noticing the website design.
