If you don't mind, could you explain how Pharo and Glamor fit together?

- tunaoftheland 9y agoI also would like know this. I find the Pharo ecosystem challenging to understate as the documentations aren't as rich as other platforms with more volunteers. Or maybe it's because of the more exploratory programming/learning style of SmallTalk and it'd just be easier if I just poked around the image to learn rather than reading the docs?
- lukego 9y agoI'm not sure how "official" this answer is but to me Glamor is a set of extensible ("moldable") development tools that are included in the Pharo distribution: Spotter (object search with better UI than google), Inspector (click through object graphs with domain-specific visualizations), and a few others like the debugger. So when I say that I picked Glamor I mean that my plan is to extend the Spotter and the Inspector to be able to navigate and visualize the internal data structures inside my application. Does that answer your question? See also this thesis on moldable tools: http://scg.unibe.ch/archive/phd/chis-phd.pdf http://scg.unibe.ch/archive/phd/chis-phd.pdf
