   I'm close to the end of initial development of a product which basically turns Microsoft Word into a desktop CMS like WordPress (it utilize Bootstrap 4 so the result is not what you might think ;)) There no reason not to use Delphi

   How about Lazarus ( https://www.lazarus-ide.org/ )? Drag and drop to build the GUI, compile natively to Windows, Linux and MacOS.

   As a Delphi developer this is the first time I heard about Java is dying, and in a reply the other one said that some is saying so for over a decade :D And I think Java is more alive then Delphi, at least no one is setting up a site like h

   Of course the ecosystem is smaller than big names such as Python, but saying that you have to write every lib is exaggerated and simple not true.

   No mention of Lazarus? Check the IDE: ( https://www.lazarus-ide.org/ ) and the cross-platform apps built with it: http://wiki.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Application_Gallery

   Check the Lazarus IDE ( https://www.lazarus-ide.org/ ), it's very similar to Delphi with an integrated code editor, visual GUI designer and debugger - you can debug on the target platform including Linux, Windows, Mac,

   FreePascal with Lazarus, the true cross-platform GUI framework is similar to Delphi's VCL or .Net's WinForms, it's been in active development for over a decade, and you compile your program into native machine code to a lot o

   Hello, why you can Pascal a low-tech language? Recently I heard about 'low-tech programming', not sure what does it actually mean.

    What's why I love Object Pascal/Delphi - good balance between abstraction and the underlying system, compile to native code, with an clean, easy language syntax: https://castle-engine.io/modern_pascal_introduction.

    Don't get confused, the gov blocks websites with a clear purpose and your English learning website definitely is not on their blocking list.

    Now even the US has grounded 737 Max, as the last one to follow up. Also for political reason?

    Sure, no matter what kind of programs. To get an idea, take a look at the example code at the end of the page: https://github.com/spinettaro/delphi-event-bus

    Sure, if not implemented as methods that return the value of an internal variable, how can one achieve the "readonly" goal?

    I especially agree with "This means that objects can only communicate by calling methods". I think we can add another thing - the object can also expose readonly properties, which allows external modules easy accessing the obj

    This sounds like the Event Bus (which can be implemented in an OOP language) to me.

    This is a reply to @lallysingh (sorry I'm replying after your post is too old to get directly replied :) Re "The model is a data structure and the view is a series of functions on it." This is exactly how I see my OO-based GU

    Calling a function of another component is a way of passing a message to another object, no matter what that message is, be it the data flows you mentioned, or anything else.
