No subscriptions - While the yearly upgrade cost is similar to a subscription, I prefer it. Subscriptions usually require the same fee year after year. The WinDev yearly subscription cost is much less than the initial purchase fee. In fact when I see that a product uses a subscription model, I immediately remove it from my list of possible tools.&#13;
2. A decent database is part of the package while retaining the option of accessing other databases.&#13;
3. Built in multimedia controls. I wish there was a VLC control so that multimedia was easily available on Linux, but for Windows, it works well.&#13;
4. Fast&#13;
5. Much lighter than Microsoft development products. Install Visual Studio express to see what I mean.&#13;
6. Software engineering components built in, no add-ons needed.&#13;
7. The W-Language - I prefer non-object oriented coding techniques. And with Internal Procedures, top-down structured code methodologies can be used.&#13;
8. Fast&#13;
9. A comprehensive IDE.&#13;
10. The ability to use the same language across desktop, web and mobile applications.&#13;
&#13;
My biggest wish is that the full development environment was available on Linux and that the Linux capabilities of generated programs were equal to Windows programs.</description><ttl>30</ttl><generator>WEBDEV</generator><language>en_US</language><link>https://forum.pcsoft.fr/es-ES/pcsoft.us.windev/55893-why-like-amp-use-windev/read.awp</link><title>Why I like &amp;amp; use Windev</title><managingEditor>moderateur@pcsoft.fr (El moderador)</managingEditor><webMaster>webmaster@pcsoft.fr (El webmaster)</webMaster></channel></rss>
