As a new user allow me a general question on the state of the art of Julia and how to use it for commercial but OpenSource real-life applications. We design and produce sensors of different types (humidity, temperature etc.). My job is to develop reference implementations on how to use the sensors,…

After a lot of work, found a solution and created a complete repository, with step by step instructions, a Wiki and an example for the Lazarus UI. See this new discussion thread for more about this. I mark this thread as resolved.

Thanks – great list! I’ve seen a few of these before, but nice to have many more. I’m also interested in any internal tools anyone has built that may not be shared publicly; screenshots or descriptions of the controls used and functionality, to the extent possible, would be great.

On a general note - juliac is an experimental development under a beta version of Julia. Windows adds it’s own specific difficulties. Fortunately there are brave people there who are not afraid of all the frustrations to help the community to improve the tools :wink:. However with all the effort I w…

[image] Ben Elkin: On a general note - juliac is an experimental development I reported about PackageCompiler.jl This is a production-ready component of Julia and I cannot get it to work under Windows. But how is that possible? Only because the developers of PackageCompiler don’t user Window…

[image] uwestoehr: A. standalone, precompiled application that runs under Windows B. a UI A paid service is acceptable as long as my customers don’t have to pay something for the final program. We will take over the costs.2. Please consider AppBundler.jl: [AppBundler.jl - Bundle you…

[image] Palli: Please consider AppBundler.jl : I had a look and its author, @Janis_Erdmanis also posted in this thread. i think the way to go is PackageCompiler → lib, then using lib either in a C++ program + Qt or in a Lazarus program. Now that I got PackageCompiler to work I will give the la…

[image] uwestoehr: Therefore we need a UI that is driven by either a company or an active community. That’s an entirely reasonable requirement, but that’s generally harder to come by in Julia, a language with relatively smaller user and developer communities. Improving base Julia’s capabiliti…

Hi, after reading this whole thread I feel like it might help you that I share my own experience, although I believe we come from a very different starting point. I started using julia 4 years ago because I believed in the not Matlab, not python, but efficient to code and to run message. My experi…

[image] BambOoxX: the fact that I cannot use juliaup on my professional computer, my company does not allow the microsoft store, it’s as simple as that. What about using MSIX App Installer for juliaup? The institution where I worked previously blocked MS Store, too, but then we could use the …

Don’t get it. What is the problem with the julia-1.XXX-win64.exe installer? It let us easily select an alternative installation directory. One that is not a hidden directory, like what the default proposes and don’t know if juliaup shows (never used, nor will use, juliaup on Windows) One can easil…

Friendly mod note here — I just detangled the discussion around the PackageCompiler hang as best I could from this more general purpose brainstorming thread around distributing windows UIs built with (or including) Julia. There’s already been quite a bit of discussion around Windows installer metho…
