All Articles Now on DelphiDabbler.com - at last

Image
At long last I've finally converted all the article PDFs exported from the old website to HTML5 and uploaded them to delphidabbler.com/articles . Also, all the demo projects related to the articles have now been uploaded to the delphidabbler/article-demos project on GitHub. And finally, the temporary delphidabbler/articles GitHub repo, that was used to store the PDF versions of the articles, was removed. That was a long haul!

Delphi Tips has a new URL

Image
The Delphi Tips micro site has at long last been re-integrated into DelphiDabbler.com . It now has its own sub-domain: tips.delphidabbler.com . The site still has its own identity, but I think the URL is a bit more memorable.

Added Demos to Delphi Tips repo

There were some well hidden demos for a smattering of the tips on the Delphi Tips microsite that had been mouldering away over on a long forgotten Assembla repo. On rediscovering them the other day I copied them over to the demos directory of the delphi-tips repo on GitHub. Like the tips, the demos are quite elderly, but some of them may still prove useful. Of course, if anyone would like to add any more, you're welcome to fork away.
