Delphi is described as 'Embarcadero Delphi, formerly CodeGear Delphi and Borland Delphi, is a software development environment for Microsoft Windows applications originally developed by Borland and now owned and developed by Embarcadero Technologies' and is a popular IDE in the development category. There are more than 25 alternatives to Delphi for a variety of platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac, BSD and .NET Framework apps. The best Delphi alternative is Microsoft Visual Studio. It's not free, so if you're looking for a free alternative, you could try Microsoft Visual Studio or Lazarus. Other great apps like Delphi are Xcode, MonoDevelop, KDevelop and Free Pascal.
Microsoft Visual Studio is an integrated development environment (IDE) for building diverse digital solutions. It supports over 36 programming languages, includes a code editor with IntelliSense, a debugger, and designers for GUI, web, and databases. The Community edition is free and integrates with GitHub Copilot.
