Edinburgh, United Kingdom – LiveCode Ltd today announced a major new piece of technology for FileMaker users. LCFM Native will take an existing FileMaker layout and convert it to a native app, faithfully preserving the layout, on any LiveCode supported platform, while still using the FileMaker database. Supported platforms include iOS, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
This technology will mean online and offline syncing in any environment becomes possible. FileMaker solutions may be used on portable devices including Android, with the ability to add rich media and native app features.
LCFM Native is currently a prototype, development is being undertaken in conjunction with .com Solutions. Users are being asked to support the Pre-Release program to fund this initiative.
There will be a webinar on 9th November demonstrating the technology, open to all.
Harry Catharell of Majic Solutions, a FileMaker Partner, said: “Wow, this is a gamechanger! I firmly believe that LCFM Native is the missing link for FileMaker that MaJic and the FileMaker Community has been waiting for. I can easily deploy a FileMaker Solution to every platform and have a sync mechanism manage both online and offline data for all users. Christmas has just arrived early!”
Kevin Miller, CEO LiveCode Ltd, said: “I’m thrilled to be bringing this important piece of technology to the FileMaker community. It will change the way FileMaker solutions can be used across the globe”
