On 5 May 2024 the Lazarus team has released Lazarus 4.0
Simply put - Lazarus is the IDE for Free Pascal.
Here is the main link

Some changes I thought were of interest are:-
-
The IDE now comes with built-in docking and docked-form editor (they can be toggled as option, rather than rebuilding IDE to install/remove packages). When run for the first time the user will be prompted with a choice to enable them.
-
a lot of Debugger changes.
