Best Component Libraries for Pascal

Enjoy the highest performance and unlimited possibilities when working with PostgreSQL. PostgreSQL Data Access Components (PgDAC) is a library of components that provides native connectivity to PostgreSQL from Delphi and C++Builder including Community Edition, as well as Lazarus (and Free Pascal) on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. PgDAC is designed to help programmers develop really lightweight, faster, and cleaner PostgreSQL database applications without deploying any additional libraries. PgDAC is a complete replacement for standard PostgreSQL connectivity solutions and presents an efficient alternative to the Borland Database Engine (BDE) and standard dbExpress driver for access to PostgreSQL. It provides direct access to PostgreSQL without PostgreSQL Client. PgDAC allows developers to optimize their database applications and harness the full capabilities of PostgreSQL.

Enjoy the highest performance and unlimited possibilities when working with SQLite. SQLite Data Access Components (LiteDAC) is a library of components that provides native connectivity to SQLite from Delphi and C++Builder including Community Edition, as well as Lazarus (and Free Pascal) on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms. LiteDAC is designed for programmers to develop truly cross-platform desktop and mobile SQLite database applications with no need to deploy any additional libraries. LiteDAC-based DB applications are easy to deploy and do not require the installation of other data provider layers (such as BDE or ODBC), and that's why they can work faster than the ones based on standard Delphi data connectivity solutions. Moreover, LiteDAC provides an additional opportunity to work with SQLite in Delphi and C++Builder directly by linking the client library statically in your application.

TRichView is a suite of native Delphi/C++Builder VCL/FireMonkey and Lazarus (Free Pascal) LCL components for displaying, editing, and printing complex rich text documents. TRichView can be used to develop advanced text editors, web/help/book authoring applications, chats and messengers, organizers and diaries, multimedia encyclopedias, and other applications that need a high-quality rich text editor or a hypertext user interface. Supported FireMonkey platforms, Windows, 64-bit macOS. The components support various character attributes (fonts, subscripts/superscripts, colored text background, custom drawn). Documents can contain tables, pictures, images from image lists, footnotes and endnotes, and any Delphi controls. Left, right, center, or justify paragraph alignment, custom margins and indents, multilevel bullets and numbering, background images, print preview, data-aware versions, and more.
