Vancouver Smalltalk Developer Meetup Group

fstephany
Hi there,

I've just started a Vancouver Smalltalk Developer Meetup group. If
you're in the area, it would great to meet around a beer and some
lightning talks.

Cheers,
Francois

Thank you so much for the invitation.  I live near Washington DC.  In the US.  I am a long time Microsoft Visual Basic developer, developing add-ins for Office products such as Excel, PowerPoint, and Project.

So far, I like what I see regarding productivity, a smaller code footprint and if I can make progress on the UI elements, a much better user experience.

The UI building process is far behind in Pharo and squeak. We are working on improving this.

This is an old draft of the system.



What we did so far was to build some experiences and learn from them.
Now we are on the edge of getting it right.
We want to
        - define widgets
        - reuse them and their logic
        - compose them
        - build a UI Placer tools (later this year)
Benjamin started to rewrite most of the tools using this approach. For example the new dual change sorter based on spec is around 9 simple methods
binding together two simple change sorter.

We will start now an experience with people not knowing the system to see if they can build simple UI such as Monticello browser.
And we will refine the approach.
