For those wishing to experiment what a current image-based development environment feels like, I recommend Pharo. Probably is the most advanced open-source development environment in the tradition of Smalltalk, available today.

- garfieldnate 4y agoI tried to go through the Pharo mooc and learn a bit, but dealing with bugs and jank in an complex and unfamiliar UI made me drop the idea pretty quickly. The object orientation aspect of it was interesting, but I just can't get behind a language which is tied so deeply to the use of a poorly maintained UI. At a first glance I'm liking the approach offered by Unison, where you work with an image but everything you need can be done from the terminal, which I think is much easier to maintain and make portably. Creating a nice UI for it can be treated as a separate problem.
