Yeah i use it for many years. The language is good, not free of warts, but does the job perfectly fine. The IDE might be a bit confusing at a first glance, but it is easy to figure out and it is so responsive it puts every other IDE to shame (consider that it runs and is usable on an original Raspberry Pi - which AFAIK has the equivalent power of a 300MHz PC). But the crown is the LCL/FCL (the VCL equivalent) framework with its tight integration with the IDE and visual designer (which you can use not just for GUI forms, but for creating actions, non-visual objects, collections, etc though obviously most of the focus has been on the GUI designer). Here is a simple tool i wrote in a couple of days in Lazarus: http://runtimeterror.com/tools/bugs/ http://runtimeterror.com/tools/bugs/ Also here are a couple of other applications i've written with it: http://runtimeterror.com/tools/gopher/ http://runtimeterror.com/tools/gopher/ http://runtimeterror.com/tools/lila/ http://runtimeterror.com/tools/lila/ I've written some other stuff too, like this graph editor: https://i.imgur.com/S2qTuU1.png https://i.imgur.com/S2qTuU1.png or this 3D world editor: https://i.imgur.com/s0GaK0A.png https://i.imgur.com/s0GaK0A.png https://i.imgur.com/316SmAh.png https://i.imgur.com/316SmAh.png or these two tools for creating bump maps and combining meshes to create textures: https://i.imgur.com/RaZQz68.png https://i.imgur.com/RaZQz68.png ...but those are run-of-the-mill tools that i haven't available anywhere. Also i have a bunch of other tools i do not have screenshots of and there might be some other stuff on the server i do not remember :-P.
