Language complement for Delphi

Question

If Delphi is the primary language for my development, what is the ideal complement to Delphi. which should be my next step?

• C# for .net and web development
• Java
• C++ for Know Win32 in depth.
• Ruby
• Perl

What is your recommendation?

Answer 1

I would recommend HTML, CSS and JavaScript. This sounds like a bit of a strange suggestion when asking for programming languages, but the Web is taking over. Delphi has had the TWebBrowser component since ages, and there are a few alternatives that offer even more features and ways to have HTML rendered onto the forms of your Delphi applications. I have found, when applied in a number of complex situations, it has saved me a lot of work and code.

(To be completely honest, though. I'm suggesting this because I'm trying to blend web-building with Delphi with the xxm project)
