RAD Studio is an application development tool based on the RAD (Rapid Application Development) concept using the Pascal programming language. RAD Studio can create native applications for the following platforms: Windows, Android, iOS, macOS, and Linux (Enterprise Edition only). With Delphi, you can quickly and easily develop mobile applications for Android and iOS using a single codebase that can be compiled for both platforms, enabling a single programmer to develop for multiple platforms simultaneously. RAD Studio consists of Delphi/Pascal and C++.
