Tide

NorbertHartl
For an upcoming project I'm thinking about what technology to use. I think it will be seaside or amber+tide. For the latter I would like to have some experience reports.

Is anyone of you using tide and what is your experience with it?

thanks,

Norbert

As one of the authors of Tide, I wouldn’t recommend to use it today… unless you are planning to maintain it too, because atm I do not have time to do it and Nico (the other/main author is not working on smalltalk anymore… nor amber or pharo).
Instead, I would use Seaside+Reef :P

Re: Tide

As one of the few (maybe the only user) of Tide, I can say that it is
powerful but painful ;-)
Amber is changing (quite) fast, and the current version of Tide is not
usable with the default version. I made some small changes to make Tide
work with the current setup of Amber, but still there are a couple of
"gotchas" that are needed to make it work.

I wanted to write something about that, but I am still in deep
development phase. If you are really interested, I may help you setup an
example project.
However, as Esteban said, think twice if this is what you need. Tide is
quite powerful, but unless you don't need strong integration with
javascript libraries Seaside is probably easier.

Thanks. That's something I (don't) wanted to hear. :) Maybe it is because there aren't that much amber users and there are (of course) even less users of amber+tide. I personally loved the idea when first encountering tide. But I know as well there are gotchas.

thanks,

Norbert

Yes and we should get a documentation.

Yes :P
here is the thing: I have far too many children/projects so I decided to keep maintaining just two… and I picked the two I think are contributions more important to community: Voyage and Reef.
Also they have the advantage (for me) of being 100% Pharo (for me, this is a big constraint to work on Tide right now: I do not have time to keep the track if two communities).
All other projects (Mars, Storm, etc.) will sleep until… well, until someday I have insomnia and I want to work on something different :)

Excellent decision.

Pushing out projects into open source is one (easy) thing, sticking with them, supporting them for years another (but only then become they really valuable). One should choose wisely.

More Reef docs, or a podcast recording (I can pick your brain there,
just tell me when).

I'd love to use Reef but need help to start.
