The last couple of years there has been a new Delphi version twice a year. With every new version there has been new features added, enhancements made and the product has just grown bigger and better.

• Firemonkey Framework for multidevice app development
• Visual Live bindings
• FireDAC
• iOS apps
• Android Apps
• App Tethering
• Sensors
• Multi device designer

• Parallels
•  FireUI
• Windows 10 support and some new components along with stability

To help you get up to speed this course will go through some of the most significant changes made to Delphi since 2010-XE with samples on the various topics.
There will be time for q&a, and as this is a hands-on workshop I strongly urge you to bring your own laptop with Delphi 10.2 Tokyo installed. You can get a trial version of Delphi 10.2 Tokyo here: http://www.embarcadero.com/products/rad-studio/start-for-free
