That's kind of "too bad" it's Windows only. I would try it on Linux and/or macos.

Delphi IDE is available for Windows only, regardless of its version. I suspect @runjake meant is that the free version only targets Windows, while the architect edition of Delphi can target all of the major OS'es out there.

The free Community Edition supports targeting Windows, Android, iOS and macOS. From a feature point of view, it is similar to what you get with the unrestricted Professional version. Enterprise and Architect also has the Linux compiler. On Windows you can use the tried and battle tested VCL framework, and for multi platform there's FireMonkey.

The IDE's are, however only runs on Windows (Or Wine if you're brave, YMMV).

That's a shame, I guess Kylix just died in the end ?

Yes, Kylix died. But current implementation of FireMonkey framework within Delphi fully took its place and some more.
