A great resource to start with is the free book 'Pharo by Example'

        http://pharobyexample.org

The book uses an older version of Pharo, but it is highly recommended to use the special version that comes with the book

Hi everyone!

My name is Mark and I'm new in Pharo community. I live in Ukraine and study in Ivan Franko National University of Lviv on the Faculty of Applied Mathematics and Informatics. I've just finished my first year and now I want to study programming a lot (I have whole summer!).

I hope, that after some time I will be able to create some cool things and also to inspire other novice programmers, as my friend inspired me. My dream is to create games. I know, that it can take a lot of time even for a simple ones, but I'm ready for it.

Thank you guys for reading this.

Mark.

Hello and welcome,

Yeah lots of programmers start programming willing to do video games. But a few finish by really doing games...

When I was student (a year ago) I started to implement a game, and then I switched and I am now working in compiler & virtual machines related stuff. But recently I decided to fulfill my dream and to finish the game I started as a student. Some features are still missing, but the game is there : http://clementbera.github.io/amber/projects/easnoth/easnoth.html#

This is done in Smalltalk. Not directly in Pharo, because Pharo permits to do client applications, and as a small game I prefered to have it on the web so I implemented in in amber, which could be described as a Pharo on the web.

Good luck with Pharo. Any question is welcomed.

that's really encouraging ;)

but yes... 25 years ago I made my first small program: 

10 PRINT "HELLO"

20 GOTO 10

( it was a Commodore 64 :D )

... and I was already dreaming about doing games :)

finally last year I decided it was about time to actually doing games and I started storm project for that... now I'm again stuck doing something else, but well... dreams are for make us moving on :)

anyway, welcome and I hope you find here a place to make your dreams live.
