Delphi vs. FireMonkey vs. TurboSQL vs. django-mysql Comparison Chart

With FireMonkey, you don't have to maintain separate development projects to deliver your app natively for multiple devices (PCs, tablets and smartphones) on multiple platforms (Windows, OS X, iOS and Android). FireMonkey makes it easy to build script-free, true native apps that expose the full range of device capabilities and performance in the underlying devices. No matter how dazzling the visuals are, if the user experience is sluggish or unresponsive, it all falls down. FireMonkey apps leverage the full power of today's hardware with native CPU performance and GPU-powered visuals on PCs, tablets and mobile devices. With FireMonkey, you get performance and responsiveness that you simply can't get from RIA platforms, virtual machine runtimes, or dynamic languages. FireMonkey applications easily connect to the most popular databases, Web and cloud services, internet protocols and mobile devices – giving you incredible business flexibility for both clients and servers.
