Comments closedI’ve blogged about Virtual Machines before, but they are so useful with a multi-platform development tool such as Xojo that they are worth mentioning again. Read on to learn more about Virtual Machines, how to use them and your options when choosing one.
Comments closedA recent article on Computer Business Review asks “Why are developers giving mobile the cold shoulder?” The article cites the State of Mobility 2015 Global Developer Study by Progress (they do not provide a link to the study).
Perhaps the reason is because mobile developers have not yet tried to see how quickly you can create mobile iOS apps with Xojo?
Comments closedThe first classes in the new Xojo Framework have been available for all project types since Xojo 2015 Release 2. Here are some of my favorite features.
Comments closedSince we make a popular cross-platform development tool, I’m often asked “what type of computer should I get for cross-platform development”?

Comments closedSince the release of Xojo for iOS, people have been asking if Xojo apps can be listed in the App Store.

Comments closedI’ve been working with JSON in the new Xojo framework quite a bit lately and wanted the ability to format the JSON text so it is more readable.
A little Internet research turned up a set of classes for .NET (in C#) that can do this. I took a few minutes to port these three classes over to a single Xojo class that can format JSON for you.
