Participating in the live Q &amp; A after the demo was <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/royswoll\/\" target=\"_blank\">Roy Woll<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.woll2woll.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Woll2Woll Software<\/a>.  I think we had a lot of fun doing it and there were tons of questions about Roy&#8217;s great components as well other subjects such as making your own components be available for multi-device apps when the user swaps to the FMX Linux target, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here&#8217;s the official Embarcadero replay of the webinar complete with the lively Q &amp; A&#8230;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Look Gorgeous and Go Cross-Platform to Windows, macOS, and Linux with Delphi 10.4 and FirePower X\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XBkWQ26X4R0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Roy also mentioned a code you can use at check-out for the Woll2Woll components too.  The coupon code to use is <strong>IBFIREPOWER15 \u2013 <\/strong>which should save you 15% on FirePower X.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.woll2woll.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Woll2Woll<\/a> site has demos and a trial copy of the Firepower X components you see me using in the video so you can try things out for yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first demo app is based on part of a commercially available Delphi program which I work on as part of my &#8216;day job&#8217;.  It is a &#8220;key personnel display&#8221; or &#8220;In\/Out Board&#8221; which shows the in\/out work status of employees.  We quickly produce a brief version of this module running on Windows and Linux.  We then swap to deploying one of Woll2Woll&#8217;s demo apps and show it running on Windows 32 and 64 bit, Linux and macOS &#8211; all from the same piece code.  Pretty cool stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If I can do all this in 29 minutes I think it does demonstrate why I call Delphi &#8220;my secret superpower&#8221;.  Honestly, it&#8217;s not difficult to target all those platforms &#8211; the hardest part is the initial set up of the <a href=\"http:\/\/docwiki.embarcadero.com\/RADStudio\/Sydney\/en\/PAServer,_the_Platform_Assistant_Server_Application\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">paServer <\/a>and SDK but once that&#8217;s done you don&#8217;t need to do it again and deploying apps cross platform to the various operating systems is literally a matter of selecting the operating system as a target and hitting compile in the RAD Studio \/ Delphi IDE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JimMcKeeth\" target=\"_blank\">Jim McKeeth<\/a>, who steered the webinar  has also blogged about it on the Embarcadero Blogs site here: <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.embarcadero.com\/cross-platform-to-windows-macos-linux-with-firepower-replay\/\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/blogs.embarcadero.com\/cross-platform-to-windows-macos-linux-with-firepower-replay\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want a copy of the slides or have questions feel free to get in touch; we present these webinars so it might help and to generally educate people about what a great development tool Delphi and RAD Studio is and I hope this comes across &#8211; it&#8217;s all about Delphi but, most especially, it&#8217;s all about you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here are some of the key slides&#8230;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure
