Let's go back to the basic case we started with. We have the XYZ desktop app which our company uses and/or sells. This app was develeoped over years using VFP and commonly used VFP tools.

Now uh ih, we need our desktop app to be able to be run "on the web." Wwe estavblish that there is a reason to do so

Next we evaluate RemoteApp por similar, which takes care of most scenarios. I gave a session on TS at SW Fox and when I asked for questions, I always got the same one -- why would any build a "web app" when TS is available?

But let's assume we now find a dollars and cents business case for not using TS and creating a browser based "web app." But perhaps some users do want a desktop app. Wow, we say, it doesn't seem like VFP can do that for us, so we think we will have to spend a bunch of money and move our app from VFP to platform X.

Then we realize that the entire web is based on HTML/JS/CSS, and that combo could never become obsolete easily. So we grab FoxInCloud and discover we can keep our desktop app and also have all our app's forms, classes, etc. run automatically as HTML/JS/CSS. Minimal conversion effort required. As long as we are actually dealing with VFP and not old FPW type do//say prg's, we are set.

Hard to come up with a scenario where that would not work and we would have to actually mnove to a different platform.
