We promised to make Corona Enterprise free to use. Today we honor that promise. If you haven’t already, please read the announcement and then return here to discuss these great changes.
I don’t think the name “corona” is great idea. Corona in the USA is beer company. So if you googled “Corona” corona labs site is the 13th result. If you google unity, unity 3D website is the first result.
That’s great news! I guess the new Corona product will give us the speed when we need those specific ad-networks, native platform libraries etc. Pretty excited about that.
Also, the new website seems to load a bit faster. Seems more can be done to speed it up but better than the old one.
By the way, can we add native code(I guess C++) to the win32 and macOS builds?
@bgmadclown The website has more tuning to do and we will work on over time. And yes, there is no reason you can’t build native features into win32 and macOS builds. On the Windows side, we still technically don’t support “Enterprise” there because we don’t have it where you can build Android apps on Windows. But producing plugins (i.e. .dll files) that you can drop into your win32 build is very much doable now.
@scottrules44. Very good point, I’ll bring that up and see what we can do about the SEO.

I guess .dll files should work fine for now. Can we expect official documentation about that soon other than the one you described in the forums? (https://forums.coronalabs.com/topic/57623-support-for-nativenewtextfield/?p=298499)
Wow, great news!!!
Will CoronaCards still be supported?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Cheers Corona!
BRAVO!!!
We are preparing to release an app platform that has a corona-based cross-platform Administrator side and an Android-native client side. We went that route because corona sdk didnt give us the lower level support we needed. We were concerned about the costs of 2 parallel track products. You’ve made that go away today. Thank you.
Is there going to be a windows version of Enterprise?
Dave
wow
Great news, thanks!
Downloading the Windows installer Eset Nod32 identify it as “Potentially unwanted application” “Win32/WebBar.F”
Don’t know how to upload a screenshot here.

@davida6, we plan to eventually get to a Windows-Android native setup, but I’m not sure where it is on the roadmap.
@egruttner, CoronaCards is still here and still a paid product.
@bdmadclown, we need to work on more documentation for making Windows DLLs for now there are a couple of examples of building plugins. I’ll have to go hunt for one of them since it’s on GitHub. The memory Bitmap plugin is also an example you can look at.
@pktracer, click on the “More Reply Options” below the editor. You can upload an image from that screen, make sure to attach it.

Ah, ok, here it is, the Nod32 antivirus notification.
Wow is correct! I almost shed a tear.
great 
Congrats to Corona on the rebranding… and congrats to all of us for free enterprise!
This is exiting news… Thanks!
This was a good rollout. Great job guys.
Really Great News!
Thanks Corona!
How do we include plugins that we’ve bought into corona Native?
I am interested to know the answer to this as well since I am currently paying for the Admob plugin.
Kindly also provide Swift sample for Enterprise. Thanks!
Those are all good news and site look really nice, good work. I have a couple of questions regarding the current situation.
I finished building my game as far as I remember at the end of the 2016 but as the news of “Corona Ads retired” came in and Corona Pro Bundle shoots up to 699$ which made me retire my already finished game which I was happy to pay for 99$ for splash plugin with ad support. Now in the light of the new announcement what are my options, how can I continue my game and release it with ad support while keeping my upfront cost minimum considering it is wild west out there in the app stores.
ps: Here are the simple fixes I found on the site just by browsing, hope it helps. (using new version of developer page)
https://developer.coronalabs.com/users/{username} -> this is 404, should go to my user account page
https://coronalabs.com/pricing -> this is 404, from “Upgrade to Enterprise” button on developer central
