Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 released!

26. July 2011 in .NET, Delphi, DelphiExperts, Developer Experts, Prism by holger | View Comments

Just a quick note… Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011 has been released officially! I have been using Beta 2 on a regular basis and it was already as stable and reliable as a full product. I am expecting the RTM version to be even better and to offer even more great features.

LightSwitch is a great tool to build business applications as it allows you to build a conceptual data model and a user interface. All the in-between plumbing is being taken care of by LightSwitch. A prototype is built pretty quickly and the framework allows for a great deal of customization if one wants to. You can write code at all sort of places so that you do not even recognize that it is a LightSwitch app.

And the best thing… you develop one app and you can deploy it to the web, to the desktop and into the cloud!
