Here's just a heads up that my latest video series named "Modern Delphi Web Development" has been completely published by TMS Software on YouTube. It consists of 8 episodes with a run-time of over 3 hours! A full table of contents with links to each video is available here.
Happy New Year! 🎉
I hope you had a peaceful and quiet Christmas break and arrived healthy and sound in 2024! We're jumping right into some Delphi fun with a new video series.
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas break! After releasing my latest book "Modern Software Development with Delphi" (see below) just in time for the holiday and relaxing a bit, I also used the time to consider my upcoming video and book activities.
As announced yesterday, my new book for Delphi developers has been published. Once again, I decided to write a hands-on book. The difference to all previous books: It will present how to develop a complete application with Delphi from scratch! Read more about how got the idea for new book after the TMS Days below.
I admit this blog has been a bit quiet lately, but there has been a good reason for it. I just uploaded my next Delphi book to Amazon for publication!
It was my pleasure presenting the power of TMS WEB Core in this year's Delphi Coding Bootcamp. In particular, I show how easy it is to create applications for the Web if you are a Delphi developer already used to writing desktop applications with the VCL.
Enjoy!
Converting strings to dates never seemed to be straightforward. First, specifying the source for all the different date component was difficult.
Second, if the conversion is unsuccessful and "no date" has been defined, it could not be expressed with TDate or TDateTime.
For the first time in years, TMS was able to celebrate Training Days in-person again! This year, TMS introduced us to the city of Bruges in Belgium. It was a wonderful event with a lot of opportunities for Delphi developers to mingle and exchange their knowledge.
Aside from the social events, there were lots of training sessions with valuable content.
Just let me get it out there, Final Fantasy XVI is a treat for the eyes for any software developer that started programming in the 1980s!
Welcome to my new blog! Once again, it is time for an update. In the last 20 years, we have come a long way. It seems like yesterday I started blogging, but as this post will show, there is quite some history involved.
