With built-in support for graphics, database servers, internet protocols and more, you can build just about anything you can imagine with Xojo. Using Xojo, you can make commercial software products, utilities to help make your life easier, or even learn to program. In fact, Xojo itself is a Xojo app!
You can use one set of source code to support multiple platforms and there are over 40 user interface controls built in, allowing your app to look and behave how you'd want it to on any platform. On the web you can use one powerful language to create your web app instead of HTML, CSS, PHP, JavaScript, or AJAX, saving you tons of development time!
Xojo is a modern, object-oriented language. It supports inheritance, interfaces, polymorphism and is strongly-typed as well. There are thousands of differences in OS API calls and Xojo abstracts you from these details, dramatically reducing development time and allowing you to focus on what makes your application unique.
Xojo apps don't have an interpreter or virtual machine - they're compiled to machine code for fast execution and the protection of your intellectual property. Xojo uses native controls so your app looks and feels right on each platform. Development is cross-platform as well. Create your project on your favorite OS and then build it for any platform Xojo supports.

To start creating your first app, you'll build your user interface by dragging items onto your window - a push button, a field, a slider. You'll resize and rearrange until it's just right.
Next it's time to give your app life! You'll use the Code Editor, combined with our straightforward language, to program the functionality of your app.
Next, you'll compile your application and it will launch ready for you to test it immediately. You can build your first Xojo app in less than an hour! Deploying a web app? Try Xojo Cloud for one-click, secure app hosting!

I really like programming with Xojo. I think it is the best all-in-one programming tool that just works and is much more straight forward to use than other development environments, like Xcode.
