  How about some CRUD app examples? :)

    Dyalog is an APL vendor, they also offer a non-commercial license and high quality documentation. They have a case study of a school management system that is a record keeping system [0]. [0] https://www.dyalog.com/case-studies/education.htm https://www.dyalog.com/case-studies/education.htm

      Thanks! Btw, what would be the open source alternative (of APL) that is popular and used in production?
      • yumaikas 6y ago
        Probably J, if I had to guess. I'm unaware of how much production use it has.

        There is a GNU implementation of APL (https://www.gnu.org/software/apl/ https://www.gnu.org/software/apl/). Not sure if it is used in commercial applications or not. I would imagine that if you are doing commercial work with APL you are going to be paying for Dyalog.

          > you are going to be paying for Dyalog Not really. As I see APL is ISO standardized and there are many implementations.
          • jetti 6y ago
            There are many implementations but not as many that are active (here is a brief list https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_(programming_language)#Modern_implementations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_(programming_language)#Mod...). Dyalog provides more than just a interpreter/compiler but an entire development environment.
