Just Participate!

Join the meetings, stream them later, comment on the 4D Forum, but whatever you do, stay involved.  We need you in the 4D community!

Demo your work/ application

Programmers, show us what you are developing!  Show off your clever code and interfaces.  Share some of your genius solutions.

Users, give a tour of your application.  What do you like/ dislike about its function?  What do you want to see more of?  What special challenges does your application solve?

Email 4dmethod@gmail.com to suggest a demo topic.

What are the financial needs of 4DMethod?

  • Web hosting.  4DMethod is hosted on WordPress.com.  We have grown out of our basic free account and now are at the Premium level which does have a significant cost.
  • Online meeting hosting with Zoom.us.  We need Pro level features of Zoom to host our meetings, so that means money!
  • Time.  The meetings require much time to plan and execute.    Although we get much joy from our efforts, this is time that potentially subtracts from paid work.  Give a few dollars to help make sure we can continue the quality and frequency of the meetings.

4DMethod is not financially supported in any way by the 4D company itself.
