One of the advantages of IntraWeb is that it uses the same kinds of tools and techniques as regular VCL development. You can build your user interface by dropping components on forms, like you would any other application. There are a number of important differences that you must keep in mind, however. The forms and components used in IntraWeb user interfaces are not the same ones used in non-Web GUI applications. When you create a form or use a component, be sure to use an IntraWeb version instead of a VCL version.
Many VCL components have IntraWeb counterparts. Generally, the... more 
IntraWeb is a tool which simplifies Web server application development. You can use IntraWeb to build Web server applications exactly the same way you would build traditional GUI applications, using forms. You can write all of your business logic in the Delphi language; IntraWeb will automatically convert program elements to script or HTML when necessary. 
IntraWeb is a powerful tool for developing Web server applications all by itself. Still, there are some things it can't do alone, like create CGI applications. For CGI, you need Web Broker or WebSnap. Also, you may have existing Web Broker and WebSnap applications that you want to extend but not rewrite. You can still take advantage of IntraWeb's design tools by using IntraWeb forms and components in Web Broker or WebSnap projects. You can use IntraWeb to create individual pages instead of entire applications.
