About this book
What's inside
Delphi has been established as one of the best software development tools for Windows desktop applications. Since its inception in 1995, it has constantly grown with the challenges of the IT industry. Today, applications often must be deployable to multiple platforms or mobile devices and offer non-proprietary interfaces for interaction with other software or hardware.
This first book in the Hands-on series walks you through several practical examples for a reproducible usage scenario. Practical examples have the greatest learning effect — and that is the philosophy of the entire series.
