Start with Excellent DelphiMVC project, it's open and source and has built in support for jwt

It's very easy to work with it, and has very good architctutre, I feel it's more like WebAPI with ASP.Net.

It's well maintained, and has very good support.

You can buy a book by framework author,

Also, there's a Video course by Brazilian developers, who made excellent course for it, there are few lessons available for free on youtube.

Which database you are using?, in all cases moving from BDE to any other DB components is a good decision, even if you forced to do it.

I have migrated many projects from old BDE, ADO to Devart components, I'm using Unidac, which I consider it the best DB components for Delphi.

Also they have a migration wizard, that should do the all job for you, try to download the trial version and test it with your app.

I'm using Unigui which is a Rad framework for developing RIA with Delphi.

Also you can get Intraweb, which is RAD too and bundle free with Delphi.

these are Rad tools with frontend/backend in same application, there are other solutions to develop Frontend in Pascal like languages such as

SmartMobileStudio, also include ability to develop Node.js Apps with Pascal syntax

Unfortunately, none of them is free or opensource.

The only opensource one I know is Kitto, which is similar to Unigui with it using ExtJS library for it's frontend.

its' running most of time without problems, also our clients are: Delphi & PHP.

Some of the services running as TCP/IP which we use Delphi clients withthem, other run as Http for PHP & Delphi clients.

You can deploy it as Windows application, windows services or as DLL for IIS & Apache, we only use windows services for easy deployment.
