I first showed FMXER at EKON 23 and CodeRage 2019: a small framework to build FireMonkey screens the way Flutter does, composing small elements in code instead of designing every screen in the form designer. Version 1.1 came out in November 2022, with Skia4Delphi and Delphi 11 Alexandria… and then the project went quiet for […]
TFrameStand turned ten in November 2025. It started as a small idea, a way to show a TFrame in a FireMonkey application with a nice transition and almost no code, and over the years it has ended up in many apps, on every platform Delphi supports. This October it got the biggest update of its […]
In June 2017 I wrote about ScannerMApp, a small QR code and barcode scanner built with Delphi, ZXing.Delphi and TFrameStand. It was a sample: a way to show how TFrameStand turns a few frames into the views of a mobile app. Nine years, several Delphi versions and many Android versions later, it deserved more than […]
Giovedì 16 Dicembre 2021ho tenuto un webinar per OSItalia. Il tema era lo sviluppo di un (semplice) client mobile per i servizi REST relativi alla fatturazione elettronica forniti da OSItalia stessa. L’intervento seguiva un altro webinar tenuto da David Lastrucci relativo alle API sottostanti. Ho deciso di usare il mio framework FMXER (disponibile gratuitamente su […]
Last month (Nov 20th-21st) I’ve joined the Be-Delphi event in the beautiful location of Genval, Belgium. It was my first participation to this event, started in 2011 and at his fifth edition. The program also included a geek night session the evening before the actual conference. Attendance was very good (full house) with a 50+ […]
This year CodeRage, the Embarcadero OnLine conference, has a new format and sessions (brief and focused) are available in series. This week topic is “FireMonkey Multi-Device Design series” hosted by Sarina DuPont, Embarcadero Director of Product Management. You can find all details and registration links at this page. I’ve submitted a session introducing FMXER (20 […]
I just added a new demo to TFrameStand repository (https://github.com/andrea-magni/TFrameStand). This comes after a user (Azzahrah) opened a issue asking how to mimic the typical Android’s bottom sheet UI pattern (https://github.com/andrea-magni/TFrameStand/issues/34). It took only a few time to figure out a proper Stand and to implement the gesture handling and this is the result: […]
I will be speaking at the DAPUG (Danish Embarcadero User Group) event on April 24-25th in Nyborg (DK). The workshop (usually structured with a single speaker for two days) this year has a special format with two speakers (Marco Cantù, Embarcadero Product Manager and me) co-presenting most of the sessions. This year also marks the […]
It is plenty out there of barcode/QR code scanner apps (both on Android Play Store and Apple AppStore [and iOS 11 include native code scanner in the camera app]) so it may seem there is no need to build a new one but this is not true! In this blog post I will describe how […]
Sono felice di comunicarvi che sarò presente come speaker alla Spring Edition di ITDevCon 2017, il 26 Maggio 2017 a Roma. Due le sessioni tecniche presentate, entrambe inedite, durante l’evento: Dependency Injection e ultime novità in MARS-Curiosity: una sessione sulle novità introdotte recentemente nella mia libreria REST MARS, con particolare riferimento all’integrazione con FireDAC per l’accesso […]
