Grab Your HUGE Delphi Anniversary “Innovation Timeline” Infographic!
Are you curious to see how your favorite programming language has evolved over time and what other advances it has enabled? Does Delphi put your curly brackets all asunder, or are your skills sharpened on C#? Do you recall the different phones you have owned over the years? Are you an Android phone fan, or fiercely loyal to Apple? What versions of Android and iOS were available when Candy Crush first came out?
All the answers to these questions and more are in the Delphi 27th Anniversary “Information Technology Innovation Timeline”, a huge high-resolution, print-quality PDF spanning the history of Delphi from February 1995, when the first version of Delphi was released as an evolution of Object Pascal, until today and the release of Delphi 11 Alexandria.

Evolution, however, does not happen in a bubble – one technology opens the door for dozens of others to flourish. The app stores, the advent of smartphones and the apps that do so much for us today rely on increasingly faster Internet speeds and 3G, 4G and 5G technologies. In the end all the technology advances work together to shape our interaction with them and with each other.
Why We Created The Infographic
It was interesting for us to see how Delphi’s evolution over the past 27 years coincided with the evolution of computer languages, browsers, operating systems, and smartphones and other devices. We also added the advent of social media platforms, popular apps and digital currencies to create a colossal map of how information technology has evolved over these past three decades.
So What’s In The Infographic?
Alongside the evolution of Delphi, the 27th Anniversary “Information Technology Innovation Timeline” also looks at:
– The evolution of devices, from the first flip phone, the Motorola StarTAC, released in 1996, to the Google Pixel 6 and iPhone 13.
– The evolution of computer languages other than Delphi and Object Pascal, from the early days of Python, Visual Basic and HTML to the latest versions of Java, Swift, C# and C++.
– The advent of new operating systems like iOS and Android, and how they changed the way we interact with the world by putting millions of apps in our pockets.
– The evolution of browsers like Chrome and Edge, and the advent of social media platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn.
Celebrating The Evolution of Information Technology
