Due — never forget anything, ever again.
REAL Studio is great for quickly creating applications for Mac OS X, Windows, Linux and the web. Its object-oriented language is tightly coupled with a visual interface builder, apps use native controls and are compiled to machine code. REAL Studio also supports most of the popular databases.
For the web, you build applications the same way you would for the desktop. No need to learn HTML, JavaScript, CSS, AJAX and PHP. You can build web applications up to 30 times faster than with traditional tools. And compiled web apps are very hard to hack!
