Overview of this book

Master Delphi, the most powerful Object Pascal IDE and versatile component library for cross-platform native app development, by harnessing its capabilities for building natively compiled, blazingly fast apps for all major platforms, including Android, iOS, Windows, Mac, and Linux. Expert Delphi begins with a quick overview of Delphi, helping you get acquainted with the IDE and the Object Pascal language. The book then quickly progresses to more advanced concepts, followed by the architecture of applications and the FireMonkey library, guiding you through building server-side services, parallel programming, and database access. Toward the end, you’ll learn how to integrate your app with various web services and deploy them effectively. By the end of this book, you’ll be adept at building powerful, cross-platform, native apps for iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS—all from a single code base.

Part 3: From Data to Services

No app is an island. Your apps will need to store data locally, with more powerful options than using files. That’s why we start the last part of the book by looking into on-device database support. Modern applications, however, rarely need only a local database. Using web services and reaching out to cloud features is extremely common these days. Leveraging mobile backends is also critical, but with Delphi you can also build mobile backends, becoming a Delphi full-stack developer.

Throughout the last part, we’ll be building many different versions of a todo application, reusing its code, and leveraging the same abstraction layer for local databases, cloud storage, and multitier apps.

This part has the following chapters:
