Our new no-code platform, initially funded under the codename “Xavvi”, will be launched under the name of LiveCode Create. This decision has been made after a great deal of discussion, internally and externally, and we’re very happy that it reflects the direction for this product.
read moreWe’re pleased to say that today we are releasing a build of LiveCode 9.6.9 with a hotfix backported into it, to allow it to open and run on the Beta Mac OS Sonoma.
While we do not usually backport bug fixes into a stable release, we would like as many people as possible to be able to test LiveCode on Sonoma before this is fully released. Since to date LiveCode would not even open in Sonoma, this fix is needed to allow us to see if there are any other issues with compatibility we need to address.
read moreOur recent Zoom meeting on Xavvi was so successful we had to convert it to a full blown Webinar to allow everyone to attend that wanted to. Thank you everyone who came along and brought your questions! Even though the session overran by half an hour, we still didn’t get through all of your questions. Therefore we have transcribed them here and answered as fully as we can.
If you couldn’t make the webinar, here is the overview introduction to Xavvi, and why we are doing it, from Kevin Miller, CEO.
Jay started with LiveCode by writing apps for his kids. His first app was a clock, and his first challenge was getting the analogue clock hands to sweep around smoothly. He felt incredible when he solved this maths problem and saw it working in the app! Using LiveCode made it easy to load onto an Android device to share the result immediately with his wife and kids. LiveCode offers a sense of achievement very quickly, within hours or days.
The end of 2022 is approaching and we’re all looking forward to some well earned time off and holiday celebrations. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukah or the Winter Solstice it’s a time of year to get together for some quality time with our nearest and dearest.
It’s also a time to reflect, on the achievements of the year, and where they might take us next. We are only part way through our “year of reinvention”: the rebirth of LiveCode as LiveCode 10 announced in spring this year.

Economies around the world have been impacted by the war in Ukraine as well as a number of other factors… Covid, Brexit, climate change, recession… Inflation is rising, exchange rates are showing dramatic changes and all of this impacts on LiveCode Ltd and the maintenance of the software you love.

read moreWe’ve talked a lot about the bigger new widgets that have arrived to enhance your LiveCode. Some of the “minor” widgets are also well worth a look. Today I’m focussing on Pattern Lock. This is actually a really neat little widget that makes it a doddle for your users to pick new pin numbers and login with them in your apps. If this is something you need you’ll love using Pattern Lock.
