Learn as you go
Most programming languages require you to spend days or even weeks learning lots of details, commands and codes before you can actually create a working program. With REALbasic, simply drag and drop a button onto a window and run your first program in seconds. As you need to do more, you learn more. It's a gradual approach designed specifically to help you learn as you go.
Leverage Your Existing Code
You may have spent years developing your Visual Basic skills and REALbasic allows you to continue to gain a return on your investment. Take your Visual Basic skills with you rather than starting over from scratch with a completely different environment. Commands you use often like DIM, STR, MID, LEFT, RIGHT, MSGBOX and more are all supported in REALbasic.
Secure your code
The Java compiler, like the .Net compiler, generates byte code rather than machine code. By its nature, byte code is very easy to re-compile back into source code. This makes Java client software applications a serious security problem because users can convert a compiled Java application back into source code, remove any licensing mechanism, copy confidential algorithms or even create a malware application that looks like a trusted application. REALbasic compiles your code into secure machine code that does not suffer from this security problem.
Secure your data from prying eyes
REALbasic comes with SQLite, the fast, industry standard, practically incorruptible database engine. REALbasic Professional Edition adds AES 128 encryption to keep your data safe.
Do you feel the need for speed?
At its core, REAL Server uses SQLite, the most popular database engine in the world. When a new, faster release of SQLite becomes available, REAL Server benefits. In our tests, we found that, overall, REAL Server is twice as fast as Postgres and over four times as fast as MySQL.
