Then something is missing to be any good for developing with it.

practice, practice, practice.... someone already wrote:

"the practice is the criterion of truth"

Go on!!!!


Obviously you will find limitations....

LAMW is a project in development and few (but valuable) people have contributed.....

Maybe you can help us!

It's a great project. I know it's in development stage.

I just say what i see. And i see the apps in the showcase is not showing any good design for Android and for end users.
It was also said in the showcase that without material design it will not be any Youtube videos of the samples. So the creator of the apps know the design was not good for any video showcase i guess.

Then it is a waste time to create a showcase if it is already known that it is not good enough. This is just marketing as a bad product, even if it is good.
This makes users stay away from it.

I don't know if it is the user that have created the apps, or if it is other things.

I just tell what i see.

I have no time to contribute other that good or bad constructive critics.

If design is your problem, even if it's a little troublesome, LAMW has a solution for that too;
With the NoGUI template, you can Design your Project in Android Studio and your important codes in Lazarus+LAMW.
A study I made with this method has now become much more functional.

Sometimes it is necessary to go from the specific to the general, something that is very insignificant to you may be very important to others. That's why ;
It would be unfair to compare a small team working with great effort and software with high budget and support.

Design and feel is very important to the end users.
It is half of the product.

Thanks to @loaded  the "NoGUI" template (other LAMW app model....)

now can show the intensive use of pure FreePascal RTL/FCL library under pure Android Studio GUI....


But there are, yet, two usual areas that "GUI" LAMW is still little explored by users (apps developers):   

Material Design (AppCompat themes)  and pure FreePascal FCL library....

I recommend creating apps for Youtube showcase that uses this material stuff.

Then it will show how nice it can be.

I guess if it's good, it will gain allot of interest from new users.

Yes you're right.... we are all children of the 90's desktop Apps.....

And even today we think about porting our applications to Android in the same way and with the same components
(that often do not exist or are inadequate in the mobile world)....

And  LAMW(just a tool) suffer from these habits....

But surely we will evolve as "mobile" developers!

Welcome to this old new world!

From the little I've explored so far, I realized that LAMW requires a minimum of developer skill and a minimum of effort to get the desired result. It is recommended to explore the tool before any conclusion. LAMW opens the door to the use of creativity. I can't wait to dedicate more time. So far I can confirm its invaluable value as a tool in my job. It allowed me to integrate desktop and mobile with perfect results and quickly. If you know free pascal and want mobile apps, LAMW is a must. The rest (including design) depends on creativity, a minimum of personal effort and some free time.


I forgot to thank jmpessoa and the few but valuable LAMW developers. You present us with a fantastic tool capable of countless possibilities. It only depends on each one to explore. Grateful for your time dedicated to this.
