Some weeks ago, we discussed here about the Harbour future.
Considering that WindowsAPI-based desktop apps development, is diminishing in favor other platforms (specially web-based technologies) this is a really important topic for us.
"mod_harbour" is a new, great alternative for those Harbour programmers considering developing for the web.
Moreover (as I've noted) it lacked of an easy-to-write GUI, to be 'inline' with the xBase spirit and then, succeed on the web, as xBase do it in the DOS-era.
Now, there is GREAT NEWS from Antonio Linares: A visual form designer for mod_harbour is in development!

Hello Roberto, I'm waiting for the source code of "IDE", and this is fantastic we will be able to create client / server web applications and still interact with our windows applications.

For the time being I see no end in WindowsAPI-based desktop apps development (POS, hospitals, doctors, banking, insurances...)
Most secure way is still desktop apps, at least in Belgium.

XAMPP stands for Cross-Platform (X), Apache (A), MariaDB (M), PHP (P) and Perl (P). It is a simple, lightweight Apache distribution that makes it extremely easy for developers to create a local web server for testing and deployment purposes.
