Build True Native Apps Faster in Delphi and C++ With Visual UI Design
Best-in-class Windows client library (VCL) and native visual UI design for cross-platform desktop and mobile (FMX), plus data, API, and web access — all from one development environment for Delphi and C++.
- True native binaries — the highest possible performance
- Comprehensive multi-database access for desktop, server, and distributed enterprise solutions, plus easily scalable features like REST-powered servers with Swagger support
- Faster coding, supported by local or cloud AI providers — always optional and fully under your control
Why make apps with RAD Studio
Three reasons teams choose RAD Studio: best-in-class Windows support, one codebase for every platform, and enterprise data with APIs — in Delphi or C++, with the performance of true native code.
Best-in-class for Windows (VCL)
Build and modernize Windows apps with full OS access and platform-native UX controls.
Cross-platform native UI (FMX)
Single-source apps and UI for desktop and mobile with a modern, GPU-accelerated rendering pipeline.
Enterprise data + APIs
Connect to databases and any web data source and ship API-driven apps with FireDAC and RAD Server.
