"Image" system might be too alien, this approach is very specific to Smalltalk.
And when I tried to learn Pharo (which is probably implementation of smalltalk best for learning today) I had impression that documentation is not very good, and there are few good tutorials. There are some big and serious books, there is Pharo MOOC, everything is so serious and academic that gives impression that the language is hard. There's no simple stupid tutorial like in other languages.
- nyankosensei 9y agoIf you download and run Pharo, a Welcome screen appears with a menu that includes “Learn Pharo Smalltalk”. That leads to a simple interactive tutorial called ProfStef that introduces you to Smalltalk syntax. There’s also a link to a free introductory book called “Pharo by Example”.
