Overview of this book

Delphi is a strongly typed, event-driven programming language with a rich ecosystem of frameworks and support tools. It comes with an extensive set of web and database libraries for rapid application development on desktop, mobile, and internet-enabled devices. This book will help you keep up with the latest IDE features and provide a sound foundation of project management and recent language enhancements to take your productivity to the next level. You’ll discover how simple it is to support popular mobile device features such as sensors, cameras, and GPS. The book will help you feel comfortable working with FireMonkey and styles and incorporating 3D user interfaces in new ways. As you advance, you’ll be able to build cross-platform solutions that not only look native but also take advantage of a wide array of device capabilities. You’ll also learn how to use embedded databases, such as SQLite and InterBase ToGo, synchronizing them with your own custom backend servers or modules using the powerful RAD Server engine. The book concludes by sharing tips for testing and deploying your end-to-end application suite for a smooth user experience. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to deliver modern enterprise applications using Delphi confidently.

First, we learned how to hook up controls to other controls and data sources, how you can use both the Designer and the Wizard to your advantage to speed up prototyping, and then how to transform your demos into production-ready applications with very little effort. Now, you know how to manipulate how date is displayed through LiveBindings custom formatting, and even how to extend the LiveBindings capabilities with custom methods.

This is not only a step forward in productivity due to it reducing your time to market with the ease of use LiveBindings provides – it also lowers the barriers to improving your interface in subtle ways that will make a big difference to your...
