Generate code to implement your design

AppMaker generates code and resources for a wide variety of languages, including C/C++ and Pascal, with the Appearance toolbox, PowerPlant, or the Tools Plus Pro libraries and framework. Users describe the generated code as excellent.

The Model-View-Controller paradigm

AppMaker's generated code uses the MVC paradigm. It separates the user interface from application logic, making code easier to write. You deal only with abstract data; AppMaker takes care of the user interface.

A tool for all seasons

Every programmer, from novice to expert, will find AppMaker a great development tool.

• Expert programmers use AppMaker as a prototyping and productivity tool.
• Novices study the generated code to learn Macintosh programming techniques or object-oriented languages.
• Windows programmers use it as an aid in learning the user interface and to turn out new projects quickly on the Macintosh.

Y2K Compliance

AppMaker has no date specific processing. We have no reason to expect any Year 2000 problems.

The generated code may use Apple's Date control. This control has a range of 1920-2019. Users should be aware of this limitation. Apple is aware of the limitation and is presumably working on a way to extend it.
