📢 Announcement: Modern Harbour MiniGUI Development Guide (78-page PDF) for MiniGUI Project Donors and Supporters

[Grigory Filatov]

Hello everyone,

I'm pleased to announce the availability of a new learning resource for the Harbour MiniGUI Extended Edition community.

Over the past few months I've been working on a practical handbook aimed at developers who are new to MiniGUI, as well as those modernizing legacy Clipper or Harbour applications.

The guide is now available as a 78-page PDF and is intended to be a practical, example-driven reference rather than a theoretical manual.

What you get

* 78 professionally formatted A4 pages, ready for printing and learning
* Complete coverage of 11 chapters, including:

  * Introduction
  * Installing the Development Environment
  * Recommended Project Structure
  * MiniGUI Fundamentals
  * Modern Best Practices
  * 20 complete, fully working MiniGUI examples
  * Refactoring Legacy MiniGUI Code
  * Coding Standards
  * 25 Common Mistakes and how to avoid them
  * MiniGUI Development Checklist
  * Appendix with frequently used commands, controls, events, and Harbour functions
* Clearly formatted monospace code blocks in shaded boxes
* 'Tip', 'Note', 'Warning', and 'Best Practice' callout boxes
* Tables, page numbers, and professional formatting throughout

The handbook emphasizes learning by studying complete working examples. Every example is self-contained and designed to be compiled, experimented with, and used as the foundation for real-world applications.

This guide is available exclusively to MiniGUI project donors and supporters as a small token of appreciation for helping support the continued development and maintenance of MiniGUI Extended Edition.


I hope it will be a valuable resource for both new and experienced MiniGUI developers.

As always, comments, suggestions, corrections, and ideas for future editions are most welcome.

Thank you to everyone who supports the MiniGUI project.

Best regards,

Grigory Filatov

Thanks to Grigory Filatov for the documentation. This is one of the problems that the MiniGUI Extended Edition ecosystem has, updated technical information with examples.
