Delta is a proof of concept to enhance the D Programming Language with the Delphi ecosystem.

There are 2 scenarios Delta tries to achieve:

• Create your GUI using the Delphi RAD Studio and connect the events with your logic written in D.
  The obligatory Hello World sample:

• Use non visual Delphi components in your D code. For example you would be able to use the INDY (Internet Direct) components.

  In the sample application, the TTimer component is used. This example also shows how to write a wrapper component in D if the component is not already available.

1. Execute:

   git clone https://github.com/andre2007/delta-core-10-2-1.git
   dub add-local delta-core-10-2-1
   
   git clone https://github.com/andre2007/delta-fmx-10-2-1.git
   dub add-local delta-fmx-10-2-1
   

    

2. Get free Delphi Starter Edition

3. Add “delta-core-10-2-1\delphi” and “delta-fmx-10-2-1\delphi” to your Delphi library path

4. Load examples\gui1\views\Project1.dpr in Delphi RAD Studio and build the project.
   Project1.dll file will be created.

5. Execute “dub” in folder examples\gui1
