I have been a CASL user for 4 years now. CASL is a great tool for Palm development, with the added bonus of being able to compile for Pocket PC as well. Although not as powerful as coding with CodeWarrior, etc., the learning curve is not nearly as steep. Users with minimal programming experience will be able to get up and running and able to develop basic handheld applications. In addition, with the ability to include C code and access any Palm API function, it is quite powerful as well. Support is also top notch. For those wanting to get started in handheld programming, the demo is definitely worth a try.

CASL is a powerful tool

I've used CASL for Palm OS, PocketPC/Win Mobile, and Windows development for years and it has worked well and profitably for me. I'm glad to see this new release continuing the progress of a terrific rapid application development tool.

It's great to be able to maintain just one set of source code and, simply by a clicking a button, get applications that run on Palm OS, PPC and Windows!

CASL 4.3

We started development on our first Palm application in 2001 trying several development environments that were available. Many of them used large runtimes and were very slow and some had too much of a learning curve for us to consider them a RAD tool.

A friend of mine told me about CASL and from the time we tried it, we were hooked. CASL is by far the best development environment for PDA platforms. What other development environment allows you to compile for Palm and Pocket PC/Windows Mobile from the same project, using the same code?

For Novices?

Would someone who has never programmed be able to use CASL?

Yes, with CASL 4.3, some great tutorials and getting started guides have been added. There are many, many good examples. There is even a video showing how to develop the basic 'hello world' app.
