Foresiight are a longtime Delphi user in Brisbane, Australia. Over the years they’ve been very successful with a Delphi-based, client server solution aimed at the Retail space.
However, in the last 12 months they’ve been doing some really interesting things with RAD Server, extending their existing Delphi codebase to become a cloud-based, multi-store system, incorporating a web front-end (using Angular) as well as their existing Delphi front-end, talking REST back to RAD Server.

So instead of having a bunch of code in their forms that interacts with, say,
