- This is the second lesson in a series about writing cross-platform applications in Pascal. In this lesson, I show you how to get started with visual design using the free Lazarus IDE.

This series explains cross-platform programming using Lazarus and Free Pascal on Windows and the Raspberry Pi OS. It will cover everything from procedural Pascal to object orientation with Object Pascal. The Pascal language used is also closely compatible with Object Pascal for Delphi.

Thanks for bringing more attention to Lazarus. It's a really underappreciated replacement for Delphi.
And for cross-platform development in particular, it's extremely useful.
@@LearnWithHuw Indeed!
Hi sir, I hope you also make a tutorial on accessing GPIO via lazarus
Wow, what a refreshingly well-designed, well-paced presentation. I'd never be mad at someone that doesn't really 'get it' taking a stab at making educational videos, but it's SO nice to see someone that knows what they're doing put in the effort to do it right. Sir, you are a pedagogical boss.
(blushing!) That's very kind of you. I'm very pleased that you liked the video so much!
That's quite a tan you have in the preview screen.
Good stuff! Looking forward to the next video Huw!
Thanks, Gary.
Thanks, interesting video.
Thanks. Lots more coming soon!
Dear sir I have many questions
First why Delphi programming language
Second how it is better than C++ MFC library
I don't think of languages as necessarily "better than" one another. Object Pascal is a clear, well-structured language with excellent visual design capabilities and also the ability to do "low level" programming (pointers, memory addressing etc.). Moreover, with Lazarus, you can also easily move projects from one operating system to another. So, for *some* projects it is highly desirable. For others, I might choose C or C#. It really all depends on the nature of the project.
Best wishes

Why did Microsoft not create a software to compete Delphi I have used c++ MFC it's quite complicated while Delphi is very easy to create windows GUI applications
@@kaustubhken MS did once release a Turbo Pascal-compatible IDE (QuickPascal). These days, for all-round, relatively easy and visual programming their top product is, I would say, C#.
Microsoft hired the guy who did Turbo Pascal and led the Delphi effort for Borland: Anders Hejlsberg. But at that time Java was considered a bigger deal and he led the development of Java replacement C# at Microsoft.
@@lockbert99 Yes. I recall Anders giving a talk at a Borland Conference in San Francisco back in the 90s. At the time, he was very reluctant to extend Pascal with object orientation (as Phillippe Khan wanted) but the rest is history!
