Tools like Delphi still haven’t been matched for GUI development: I was able to use it as a 6/7 year old to create little programs with buttons that popped up message boxes when clicked. And, if I needed help, I just clicked something on screen, hit F1 and got great documentation.
- kirstenbirgit 8y agoI had the same experience with Delphi and similar tools. It's amazing to me that 20 years after, the Web is still not quite up to par with regards to speed and ease of development as well as performance. I'm not sure we'll ever get there, either.
- Sharlin 8y agoYeah, very true. VB1 and then Delphi constituted my ingress into the world of GUI programming as well, after C64 Basic and QBasic.
