Why rewrite and port to a platform (be it Lianja or anything similar) that is a niche platform? For that matter, why rewrite at all? Your goals seem to be for a more modern interface, not a rewrite of your entire app. With something like FoxInCloud you can convert your VFP to HTML/JS/CSS and still maintain the ability to develop in VFP or HTML/JS. The only long term major not going anywhere platform right now is HTML/JS.

>We are running a software company and have a complex database app in the medical field. Since VFP has been discontinued we are searching for another development tool that can move us to the next level. By that I mean:
>
>- A more modern user interface
>- Running cross platform or at least some tablets natively
>- A solution to upgrade our application to run in a browser.
>
>This of course without having to rewrite all our code or entirely redesigning (we are using a lot of VFP scripts stored in the database, out there on many clients) the application.
>
>We have found that at least from a functionality POV Lianja seems to fit us best. Granted, it has not been released yet, but so far the comments I've read are positive. The company behind it seems to be a solid company (as opposed to the ones we have seen in the past) and their functionality is certainly looking impressive.

>Since it is supporting VFP compatibility to a high degree, it seems very interesting as much code could be ported over without much problems (I'd assume) and we do not have to entirely retrain all programmers into a new programming language. The support for other language like Python, PHP and Javascript as a real bonus I think.

>If this works, we are willing to invest in this product. the pricing seems reasonable to me.
>
>My question is what your opinion is about Lianja. Are there any caveats we should know about. Are there any valid reasons not to go this way ?

>Thanks,
