01 — About this book
What's inside
Delphi comes with native compilers for Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android. This second book in the Hands-on series puts FNC Maps front and center — a component framework for mapping and geographic services from Google Maps, TomTom, Microsoft Bing Maps, Microsoft Azure, Mapbox, Here, and OpenLayers. Drop a component on your form and you're already mapping.
Every topic is explained with examples that transfer easily to your own use cases.
