Intro

Up until now, the only way to use the TTMSFNCWebBrowser in a Linux environment was through FMXLinux. Today, we can proudly announce official Linux support through Lazarus as well. A couple of FNC products were already working in Linux, but the browser based components, such as the TTMSFNCWebBrowser and the TTMSFNCMaps components (& descendants) were not working. We have been working hard the past months to make our browser based products ready for Linux. With Linux support through Lazarus, we add yet again a new platform to the wide variety of already supported platforms in FNC.

Getting Started

The components have been tested and deployed on a Linux environment (Ubuntu 20.04) after properly setting up Lazarus and other dependencies required for various parts of FNC.

sudo apt install joe wget p7zip-full curl openssh-server build-essential zlib1g-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libncurses5
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev
sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-glx libglu1-mesa libgtk-3-common libgstreamer1.0-0 libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-0
sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev

GTK 3.0

Stay tuned!

With Linux support through Lazarus we add yet another major and exciting platform to the already huge amount of platforms FNC has to offer. Stay tuned for more FNC improvements and features coming up in the near future!.
