I have high hopes that this might be like the “Definitive” guides of yore, at the very least it should be learn the basics much quicker than I could on my own. I am also hoping that it might help to choose between Swift and Objective-C (which I have a lot more experience). Objective-C is more power…

At this year’s WWDC improved integration of C++ code into Swift projects has been announced. I haven’t tried since I have no experience in C++ but it may be a way to use existing C++ code in Swift projects.

Learning about SwiftUI from that book and holy shit… Xojo really fucked up with their “2.0 All The Things” it isn’t even funny. I’ve only read half the book (just reading) and wow… just wow… I look forward to actually building the demo app in the book. I’m already thinking about how I can convert s…

pretty much the same for JavaFX for cross platform. It is somehow fascinating how things are just working as described in the documentation and on all platforms. Originally I thought that at least Xojo’s Layout Manager might be more powerful. It isn’t - it takes a bit of time to get used to the Sce…

That’s why I had never the Idea even to think about a Xojo Desktop application. That is in my case no option. And Web…also not while I have the best solution with JPro.One for Web with JavaFX. That is the best way to do an implementation. While I can also do mobile Apps with it can do styling even o…

Yes that’s how it looks and works . Solid, stable, reliable. And that on windows, Linux and macos

IMHO declarative UI is the future. Think of a simplified HTML/CSS. It’s possible to write out a single UI and voila, it looks, smells and works like a native Mac app, but the same code (and in the future the same executable) will look, smell and operate like a native mobile application. Meanwhile, …

Since more people using qt and java swing and fx than everything else: nope.

While Mac is not the middle of the world there will be much more than declarative ui of swift. Even that is a small niche.
