If you are new to working with a full featured framework like Firemonkey you may be wondering at the size of the apps that Delphi 10.3 Rio Firemonkey generates. The Firemonkey Framework has hundreds of thousands of lines of code that allows you to jump ahead and start building the app you want to build now instead of the bricks in the road to get there. Hopefully this infographic will provide some insight into what makes up an APK/IPA cross platform application deployed from Delphi 10.3 with the FMX framework. The infographic covers Android, IOS, Windows, and Mac OSX apps/packages/libraries/archives created using the Firemonkey framework. Tools that utilize the Firemonkey framework are Delphi 10.3, C++Builder 10.3, and RAD Studio 10.3. The infographic only covers Release mode (something you could deploy to your customers). I have also included a VCL section in the infographic so that you can compare the Windows only VCL framework to the cross platform FMX framework. Also keep in mind that when you use debug information or are in Debug mode your file could be significantly larger. The sizes of the generated files are included in the green circles. There is the normal compiled size and then there is the compressed or packaged size. APK and IPA files are packaged and compressed. The compressed sizes for Windows and Mac OSX were achieved using the 7Zip format. Here is some information directly from the infographic as well about what units are included in a FMX app on Android (it is slightly different on each platform) and how those units effect the size of the deployable file.

In C++Builder 10.2.2, Embarcadero has added a new component to the FireDAC BatchMove architecture, to support generating JSON data from database tables, in an easy and flexible way. RAD Studio (Delphi and C++ Builder) has offered support for JSON in different ways and for a long time. From the JSON system unit (originally part of the DBX space) to the DataSnap table mapping (also via DBX) and to FireDAC tables to JSON mapping, there are many ways to interact with JSON data structures. As an enhancement, in the 10.2.2 release, we now added the capability to map a dataset to a custom JSON structure -- the FireDAC JSON support produces a FireDAC specific structure,metadataa data, and record status information.

An easy-to-use database-like interface for Delphi & C++Builder Apps access to live Google Drive data (Files, Changes, Apps, and more).

Connect to Google Drive from Rad Studio Data Explorer.
Easy-to-use driver interfaces provide access to a full range of data, including Files, Changes, Apps, etc.
Access Google Drive data from reporting tools, databases, and custom applications.

TMS RemoteDB allows you to create database applications that perform SQL operations on a remote http server, instead of a database server, using a TDataset descendant. This makes it easy to convert existing Delphi client-server applications into 3-tier applications with minimal changes in source code.
