This section will introduce you to the FMX application framework and explain some of its capabilities in relation to another Delphi product: the Visual Component Library (VCL). We are going to explore the context in which FMX has been designed and implemented in order to understand how its peculiarities suit a product such as Delphi (or RAD Studio).
The comparison with VCL will be extremely useful if you are already familiar with Delphi and VCL, but also, if you are using Delphi for the first time, many fundamental concepts are summarized in this section and you will see how these concepts fit together.
This section contains the following chapters:
- Chapter 1, Introducing the FireMonkey Framework
- Chapter 2, Exploring Similarities and Differences with VCL
