Ohanaware App Kit 1.0.5

Wednesday, August 12, 2020 - Sam Rowlands

Proudly announcing the immediate availability of version 1.0.5 of our App Kit.

The Ohanaware App Kit 2020 is a collection of declares and convenience classes that we (Ohanaware) have created over the last decade or so. Which we've then wrapped up into this kit to help other Xojo developers create better Mac Apps, through access to functions and technology that it's possible out of the box.
