Alternative projects to Lazarus, but built with FPC:

* fpGUI: https://fpgui.sourceforge.net
* MSEide & MSEgui: https://github.com/mse-org/mseide-msegui

Examples

or LCL at all):

fpGUI themeing support, and some custom apps (last two screenshots):

Screenshots of apps included and written using fpGUI:

fpGUI's DocView help viewer, integrated with various IDEs:

AggPas software 2D rendering engine:

tiOPF - Database Persistence Framework, which supports VCL, LCL and
fpGUI. It also includes its own non-DB visual component layer (aka
Mediators), which uses the model-gui-mediator design pattern, to make
any standard components "object aware" with bidirectional updates.

All these have been around for 15+ years.


I believe there used to be a FPC wiki page listing these and many many
more like these.
