Not the parent commenter, but what Delphi always excelled at was being able to quickly click together a GUI (with a WYSIWYG UI designer) and easily hook up the events (onClick etc.) to your code. That, and the blazing fast compilation speed which contributed to making quick iteration easy. Think VB6, just with a "serious" compiled language sitting behind it. Current versions of Delphi also support MacOS, iOS, Android and Linux (?), although I'm not sure how well that works, as I got off the Delphi train back in 2010.
