Motivation
Problems
- Delphi doesn't run on Linux
- No free non-commercial or free limited commercial license is provided.
- As no free version is available no new programmers will start using Delphi in future
- Delphi installation is too heavy (bloated).
- Offline help contains code examples and other information related to C++ Builder which is not interesting for Delphi programmers.
- Delphi can build multi-platform applications but only for commercially interesting platforms.
Goals
- Create open source alternative to Embarcadero RAD Studio/Delphi and Delphi compiler.
- Create community development portal (forge) - to allow to make common project management tasks easy.
- Provide tutorials and learning stuff for new beginners programmers
