As the year draws to a close, I wanted to take a moment to share where we’re at with LiveCode Create – and where we’re headed next.

It’s been a busy time for the team, and we’ve made some real strides. Our focus has been on four key areas: DataDeploymentDocs, and Refinement—the building blocks for making Create as powerful as it is easy to use.

LiveCode and the Concert Pianist

by Fred Moyer on August 16, 2024 5 comments

One of the great uses of LiveCode is to create applications that perform tasks that are highly personalized yet deep and complex. I started studying the piano at age 7, majored in piano performance in college, and started a successful concert career as a young adult, playing in 44 countries with many of the world’s major orchestras. So it was a good success, but not huge, and had I continued in the normal way, I would probably have ended up teaching in a conservatory with modest performing activities on the side. 

Almost any task I do now has LiveCode attached to it.

One of the most exciting features in Create can be found in its Responsive Layout capabilities. Whilst building the LiveCode Create product we have some key questions that guide our decision making. Is there an opportunity to make something easier? Is there an opportunity to make something better? Can we do it in a way that removes friction points from the user experience? Can we do all of those things without building a tool that feels limited? We took those questions into our approach to building Responsive Layout features and as much as it’s still work in progress, it’s already becoming one of my favourite features.
