Is there a list anywhere of some of the top commercial applications built using RunRev? I'm especially interested in seeing the UIs that have been created.

What types of apps. are most frequently built using RR?

Are most developers using the product for custom vertical market apps. for their clients? What % of RR developers are actually building and distributing commercial-grade apps. to end-users?

Thanks for any insight on this.

Here is one example my work with Rev: http://www.einspine.com

While there is no 'definitive' list, there are quite a few applications written in Revolution. Here are a few off the top of my head:

• Altuit Hemingway - a website content management system
• inEntertainment - an all-in-one solution for the entertainment industry (including address book, accounting, project management,...)
• Screensteps - a documentation tool
• ManyBases FastMailBase - a database-backed system to archive emails
• ResearchWare HyperResearch - qualitative analysis software

There are plenty more, but this should get you an idea of the wealth of applications that you can build with Revolution.

Most commonly, vertical market apps for which lower-level languages like C++ may not provide a positive ROI. Given Rev's broad support for multimedia (flexible image handling, video/audio playback and recording, dynamic vector graphics, animation, etc.) such apps tend toward the multimedia end of the scale, but Rev's chunk expressions also make it ideally suited for text processing tasks as well, and its strong DB support coupled with rich UIs make it popular for DB front-ends as well.

Hard to guess about the actual percentage. There are a great many commercial and in-house apps built with Rev, but there are also a lot of hobbyists and educators, so the range of uses is quite broad.
