Thanks Jeannot.
I am converting some Web 1.0 apps.
The performance gain is just too much to ignore comparing Web 1.0 and Web 2.0.
I would recommend moving to Web 2.0 for all.
Your tutorial would definitely help.
Thanks again.

Thank you, in case your apps are using MBS ChartDirector, my latest article below might help you as well. But regardless of using MBS ChartDirector or not, the use of SVG might help many on others topics.

Dear Jeannot,
Iād love to read your tutorial. But when I click on the link Medium replies with āThe author deleted this Medium story.ā Am I doing anything wrong or has it moved somewhere else?
Thank you very much in advance.

@PaulS Thank you for pointing @Christine_Dettmer1 to the right location.
I apologize for the mess. I was quite busy recently, and secondly, I decided against medium for different reasons. Moving blogs is always a pain. Initially, I thought medium is a good idea (and for free), but they have a few caveats: mainly that it is a closed platform, getting all(!) of your data out from them is utmost impossible, secondly, they have few options for formatting code. Linking code snippets to them via github Gists is possible, but not very āauthorā-friendly. Plus many were complaining that they could only read 5 medium posts a month.
Medium has lots of nice thing to read BUT it only allow you to read 5 article a day unless you want to pay which is a pain. i was so happy when Jeannot decide to move to his current website

I certainly donāt demand that another user write a tutorial. Just tell me how you learned to use the new Bootstrap methodology. I echo the sentiments of others on this thread in that I am not so much unhappy with this 2.0 change, but totally flummoxed as to how to implement these changes (FYI, I am a complete noob to Xojo web). I never cared for Bootstrap back when I did web design simply because I had to override the settings too often, and I could write CSS just fine on my own (no master, but itās easier for me to write from scratch for the simple stuff I am capable of doing). I have no idea, however, where to put the CSS overrides in Xojo. Raising the question of using CSS in the App HTML Header produces answers like āuse the web sdkā, which may be a good answer, but completely unworkable at my skill levelāthough I would certainly be willing to read any documentation that existed (documentation that actually explains how to do it, not just what itās for and how it evolved, which is all Iāve seen so far).
From my point of view, itās not learning new ways of doing things that I mind, itās not being provided with an explanation of how to do these things.
Thank you

NB
I discovered youāre not doing much Xojo these days, but Iām posting for the benefit of others in the thread who might still be looking for information as I am.
Paul
Iām late to the party (and in the same jam as others on this thread). The larget of the links has moved again. Any idea where to?
Thanks for your trouble regardless

You can read Jeannotās Xojo blogs on
https://xojo.jeannot-muller.com/.
Since Jeannot has stopped developing in Xojo at the time, he made his Web2 plug-ins open source.
Thank you, Paul. I did download one of his plugins, but I got a bunch of errors, indicating the code was no longer supported. I think I made some mistakes putting the whole folder in the plugins (since there wasnāt any file named āPlug-inā), but Iāll sort that out by and by.
I appreciate you posting the link.

FYI: there is a nice web site with plenty information about bootstrapā¦
Itās really a shame to see so many long-time Xojo, RS, RB users/proponents leaving Xojo, including me, in many cases because of Xojoās major misstep in abandoning the fantastically unique, easy to use, reliable Web 1 product for this āother thingā they happened to name Web 2. If I wanted to learn HTML, CSS, and Javascript Iād be using another product (and now probably will).

Opinions varyā¦ For example Iām pretty much statisfied with the way Web 2.0 is going. It still needs some fixes and improvements but it is still an order of magnintude easier to work in Xojo than with other HTML/CSS/JS tools.

Hector. My point isnāt that there should not be a product like Web 2.0. My point is that it is not a viable replacement for Web 1.0. To eliminate a product Iāve relied on for can-not-fail applications (mostly in broadcast television) for years and replace it a completely different product targeting a totally different audience, well thatās my point. It just isnāt right. Iāve been using Web 1.0 since itās first release for everything from live on-air graphics to large-scale infrastructure management. I even have it running in embedded application under Docker. These applications never have more than 20 or so users at a time (if that) but these companies pay me a LOT of money for them. With all the missing features in Web 2.0 Iām left without the tool Iāve relied on for many, many years. As a long time Xojo user why are your requirements more important than mine and all those like myself who have used it for small work groups instead of āthe webā?

Iām not claiming that my requirements are more important than yours, in fact I explicitly stated that opinions vary.
Killing Web 1.0 without a proper replacement was not the best move by Xojo, we can agree on that. Having said that there is no reason you canāt continue to use Web 1.0 if it suits your needs and happily continue making LOTS of money with your apps.
Thanks Hector, and sorry for my poor attitude on this subject. Iāve been a proponent of Xojo (especially the web edition) for many years and this move caught me blindsided.
I would continue using Web 1.0 as you suggest were it not for one considerable issue, the lack of native Apple Silicon support. My platform of choice for on-prem installations historically has been the Mac Mini as a workgroup application server and all new Macs are based on Apple Silicon. Additionally a number of my ādesktop appsā are essentially a DesktopHTMLViewer with an embedded Web 1.0 app providing the UI. I love the fact that I can scale the screen size dynamically to fit any display my users might have and also ācastā the UI onto another computer (or device) running it in the local browser. None of this can be done with a conventional desktop app. Unfortunately without ānativeā Apple Silicon support Web 1.0 is now limited to Windows and Linux. Iāve suggested that Xojo should release a separate RAD product based on Web 1.0 (call it Web Classic or something). Iād keep my Pro license in perpetuity if such a product were included and available. I donāt expect adding Apple Silicon compiler support to the Web 1.0 code base would be a major endeavor. Itād be a shame to let the great product (formerly called Web 1.0) fade into the sunset. There are lots of us long-time users out here who rely on it.

No worries, I understand the frustration 
As I mentioned killing Web 1.0 without a proper alternative was a really bad move from Xojo. I started developing web apps in Xojo using Web 1.0 and I really liked the idea of ādesktop looking web appsā. Xojo decided to āmodernizeā the look and the product took a step backwards in functionality.
I am very optimistic about Web 2.0 but I canāt deny its still lacking. We got a new release today with many fixes, hopefully soon Web 2.0 will be the product we all root for.
Iām downloading it now. Hopefully Iāll be pleasantly surprised.
