I’m sure that your aware that Ms access, Delphi, Visual Basic, progress as well as a host of other tools existed at the time, and you’re fine to point out that Next was superior but given that really none of these systems survived, something else must be going on.
- stjohnswarts 6y agoWhat? Delphi and the Microsoft tools are still available. They did survive they just didn't prosper I suppose you could say.
- alblue 6y agoSure, but Delphi was released in 1995 as the first version, whereas this was something I was programming in 1992 (and I came late to the party with Nextstep 3). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Delphi_(software) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Delphi_(software) Visual Basic came out in 1991, by which time Nextstep was already at version 2.1 So yes, these things existed, but after Next had demonstrated them.
