Dr Kevin R Bond
Quartex Pascal (short: QTX) is a stand-alone object pascal IDE, compiler, run-time library and development system which to run does not need a copy of Delphi. QTX generates high performance JavaScript – allowing developers to tap into web technology and enjoy the full might of modern mobile, desktop and server development. This means you can use all the frameworks that Javascript people enjoy, write websites, servers, services and mobile apps - repurposing your Delphi/Object Pacal/Pascal skills under the web paradigm. The compiled code will run in your browser or server-side through node.js.
Additional resources to accompany the text will available from our website.
