Hi, I'd like to add very basic support for AWS S3 to my delphi application. I'm looking at exactly 3 operations: PUT file/object, GET file/object, LIST objects within a bucket. Suggestions on quickest, easiest way to add this?

Thanks to everyone who has replied. I'm using Delphi CE and some of the options presented don't seem to be available for CE.

Hi everyone, I'm a long-time software developer (30 years), but new to Delphi. I resigned from the big corporate world in spring of 2024. I'm now working on developing some software as an indie developer. Having a lot of fun with Delphi! My first product is being written in Delphi (CE 12.1) with VCL. Once it's published, I plan to make a macOS version of the same application in Xcode/ObjC. You may wonder -- why don't you use FMX and just have 1 version that targets both platforms? I'm aware of FMX, but it feels like too big of a hurdle for me to tackle at this time. I have Xcode/Cocoa/ObjC experience, so it's not a big problem to develop. The application (commercial; closed source) will be targeted at exploratory data analysis of SQLite databases. While a great deal of the Delphi VCL is already implemented, there's still a lot to do. I don't have a name for my product yet, no website, etc. A sampling of things I'm currently working on (welcome to any suggestions!): - What to use for generating and managing license keys? - What to use for online sales? - What to use for producing PDF content? - What to use for internal product database? (leaning to either SQLite, Firebird, or IBLite) - How to route connecting lines for entity-relationship diagram? (currently drawing my lines with my own code, but it's not good enough) - What to use to product help files (all embedded within executable, some in exe/some on website, all on website)? - Font oddities with VCL TCanvas - Thinking about when/if to consider adding Skia and where to start with it -paul

Thanks David! Sounds like you've got a nice setup. I'll keep this option in mind. I appreciate your comments and suggestions.

Thank you Patrick. Much appreciated! I will have a look at both.

Thanks Patrick. Much appreciated! I will have a look at all of the options you suggested.

Thanks Keesver. Much appreciated! I will have a look at Graphviz. I didn't realize it was something you can use like an engine.
