The Silver Coder on YouTube
silvercoder70:
Hi everyone, I'm Tim! A developer with a passion for Pascal that stretches back 30 years, starting with Turbo Pascal in the late 1980s and then Delphi.
Life takes interesting turns, and these days I find myself as a parish admin with a tutoring side-hustle. But the developer fire still burns! That's why I launched "The Silver Coder," a YouTube channel dedicated to the world of Pascal. I delve into Lazarus, Free Pascal, and the broader Pascal family.
My channel goes beyond tutorials. It's about growth, mentorship, and building a strong foundation for your development success. I'm here to share my knowledge and help you unlock your coding potential.
What topics would you like to see covered? Let me know in the comments!

Hello Tim,
Welcome to the forum.
I visited The Silver Coder, nice!
Video tutorials for Lazarus/Delphi are rare to be found, glad to know there is a new one. Someone please add it into the list:

Actually I have a very long list of topics but I think you should start with some general topics that suitable for beginners/newbies first, like:
- How Lazarus compare to Delphi
- How to convert Delphi source codes to Lazarus
- Writing simple GUI programs, like calculator, screen capture, etc
- Writing simple games, like pong, etc
Later, it would be nice if you can cover these topics:
- Prepare Lazarus cross compiler
- How to write Android applications using LAMW
- How to write database programs
- How to write programs that allow computers to communicate via LAN
Here are some links that maybe useful for you:

~~~ Edit ~~~
I saw you're good in C/C++/# and Python too, maybe you can talk about the similarity and differences how they compare to Pascal, and what are their advantages and disadvantages in your point of view.

هل تعتقد انها فكرة جيدة ؟
By Google
Do you think it's a good idea?

I prefer to hear from someone who really has years of experience of using them.
Years ago, I wrote health articles and let Google indexed them. I was not a doctor nor a medical practioner. I just did some research on the web, then I could write.
silvercoder70:
I still remember quite a bit of C/C++.
As far as python goes... I tutor in that language.
But years of experience .... No
That said, to my knowledge python replaced pascal as an intro language at Uni?
There is a lot more that could be said, but will leave that for a later time.
