It was still quite common in the 1990's for different platforms to have more or less separate demoscenes. When users of different platforms participated in a single event, it was considered obvious to split the competition categories for each supported platform (e.g. having separate demo and intro competitions for the PC and the Amiga).

There has also been some effort for making demos for restricted software platforms such as [[BASIC]] interpreters, [[Java platform|Java]] applets, [[J2ME]], [[Macromedia Flash]], [[JavaScript]], [[PHP]] and even [[Microsoft Office]]. Software platform restrictions like this, however, have not yet earned the respect from the majority of demosceners.
