It has the nice graphical front end for managing the compiler. If you want the simplest installation experience go with CodeTyphon. But, understandably, the installation process is a skill in itself.ĬodeTyphon is a a different/separate branch of an installer system, which is more of a utility suite/tools/third party code compilation library. There are plenty of good installation scripts/methods from the official Lazarus/FPC team and in the community for a. A typical "installation" is actually a bootstrap FPC compiler doing a three-pass compilation of an "install". You don't just download an installer and click ok. Lazarus can be a daunting installation process due to it's nature as a cross compiling environment.
There also were disputes in FPC forums/wiki about CodeTyphon pirating some open-source components.
It is widely believed that Orca (if I remember the name) violates copyrights of glScene/vgScene, which also happened in early Delphi FMX releases but was fixed by EMBA later. There were however issues with code legality in CT grande bundle.
However maybe it better works on Linux than on Windows, I don't know. What about one-single-window plugin, it is work-in-progress and it doesn't seems to me it is ready for production use, no matter would you get it as part of CT or download and add it to vanilla Lazarus. Whether their assessment is better or worse than upstream's Lazarus Team's, I don't know. CodeTyphon is a distro of Lazarus, like Ubuntu and Debian are distros of Linux.ĬodeTyphon comes with a large package of components and plugins, that otherwise you would have to google and download and install.ĬodeTyphon have their own idea what are stable versions and what are not stable yet for both of FPC (compiler) and Lazarus(IDE).
