I miss you Delphi???

Why did we forget Delphi? if Delphi was so bad? Which language has the same RAD technology like Delphi has for Mobile & PC Apps? Everyone has an opportunity to build own App with comfortable visual Delphi's IDE interface. Now it's more popular in Europe but not for other coder's backgrounds. I think Object Pascal is very shapely and rigorous programming language for education goals. We began with it to learn programming in each Russian school. I think it's history of programming education all over the world and Delphi is not less popular than others till now. Many serious Apps was coded with Delphi. Maybe to a certain degree it would be better stop running around for popular things until we reveal the full potential of the things available. I think we need not to forget such languages like Delphi at least.

I do remember people considering Pascal (by extension Delphi?) a teaching language. You could Menu | Feedback a suggestion, but in the meantime there's FreePascal. It appears to be (at least partially) compatible with Turbo Pascal, Object Pascal, Delphi, etc. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Pascal The screenshot looks like Borland's old OO interface (or the IDE).
