>>>>>>>>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.
