This year Xojo celebrates 30 years. In 1996 they started with the product under the name REALbasic. I got notice about it with an article in a printed Macwelt magazine in 1998. They wrote about REALbasic building macOS applications and having Windows support in beta version. I was keen to try it and asked my parents to get me this software for Christmas.
In 1998 and 1999 I was very busy coding my first applications in REALbasic and put them on a website for people to download and try. End of 1999 I got the first people asking to for for them as contractor and so in April 2000 I founded my company.
In June 2013 the name changed to Xojo to finally made Xojo mostly in Xojo. By using it themselves daily, a lot of things in the IDE improved. Over the years they added Linux support, the web target, iOS and later Android support.
To celebrate the anniversary, Xojo offers a sale in April. You may have got a newsletter about this. And sign-up for the special offers here:

In this article I want to introduce you the new functionalities from the MBS Xojo Plugins in version 26.1.
Everyone is talking about AI, and we're working to give you the most out of this technology. We've added a new topic called Llama to the Plugins section. This component provides features that let you use a local LLM on your computer. This allows you to download a model, use it locally, and query it in a chat. You can learn how this works in detail in our blog post Use Llama.cpp in Xojo
