Hello,

I found the following amazing lecture that present a new idea of a development tool, that I think will interest you all:

Enjoy

Thanks, Worth watching. It's interesting it's not directly connected to Lazarus, There are some ways where it is )

For example, the first example with the JavaScript tree was very impressive until I saw the similarities with components and design-time/run-time metaphore. Delphi and Lazarus developers lived with this "change value - see instant reaction" way of developing for very long time. And components are supposed to live such life in contrary to arbitrary code fragments of imperative languages that may require multiple state changes (for example opening a particular file) until you actually can see and change anything. Not mentioning that a property is more natural to understand without prior knowledge than some strange constant in the middle of code fragment.

Other connection is Larry Tesler. Although it was mentioned basically with his NOMODES motto, for us he is the guy who developed Apple dialect of Object Pascal (together with Wirth)
