Question: I want to code a server side software with Delphi+Firebird but i need a documentation (or tutorial) that explains all the steps and components from the beginning. Is there any site/tutorial/document that you can suggest? which explains step by step coding.

Even if you suggest a component to make server side connection with regard to your experiences, i will be glad.
Thanks.

Answer: 
1. The main English information source for Firebird is [IBPhoenix](http://www.ibphoenix.com/main.nfs?a=ibphoenix&s=1292063514:200606&page=ibp_document).
2. The main Russian information source for Firebird is [IBase](http://www.ibase.ru/).
3. The [Firebird FAQ](http://www.firebirdfaq.org/faq7/) gives a list of Delphi connectivity options and answers on many other Firebird questions.
4. It will be hard to pass along [IBExpert](http://ibexpert.net/ibe/). There you will find useful tools and Firebird articles.
Actually Firebird is a fork from Interbase, yes Interbase had become an open source some time ago and then become closed source again. So, u can use Interbase as a reference. But as time goes, Firebird become better and better in quality. Also become different from Interbase itself. To get more info on Firebird, u can visit www.ibphoenix.com. 
For the components to connect Firebird, u can use FIBPlus, UIB, anyDac, UNIDAC and many more. The one u must avoid is IBX itself, Jeff Overcash has state that IBX is NEVER tested against Firebird and WILL NOT TESTED agains Firebird. They see Firebird as competitor actually. 
I use Firebird daily and it never fails (except if your HDD broken).
