Thank you for sharing this content on Youtube. Although, I have a few things that I would like to suggest for the boot camp 1 that would be much more attractive for the new developers. I always find Delphi community do not think much of those developers that are beginning at the Language.

- Beyond the IDE shown, you could also have shown the most common components used in Delphi.
- It would be great if we could continue the project created by you as an example of what we can do in Delphi, such as ShowMessages; Buttons, Edits, Lists, Grids and etc...
- The lecture should be more fun; We are not robots, you can make fun of it. I almost fell asleep when you showed the forms of video player, It is not important for beginners It is a lecture of Introduction in Delphi.
- I found interesting the parallel programming feature showed though, but it is advanced programming.




Hope we can keep growing the Delphi Community worldwide!
