- ioasuncvinvaer 2mo agoIt's not about AI
- brabel 2mo agoAre you joking? GTK is not about AI either (though yeah they put LLMs in it if you want), it's another Smalltalk environment.
- flowardnut 2mo agoi mean look at the site linked. It's beating you over the head with AI immediately
- brabel 2mo agoThey did turn the AI marketing dial way up on the landing page, but you should give the project a chance if you haven't seen it - it's by far the most modern Smalltalk browser and super fun to use. I only stopped using it on my random data explorations and for-fun coding sessions because it was quite heavy in RAM usage and I wanted something lighter (settled on good old emacs).
- efficax 2mo agoGlamorous Toolkit is built on Pharo, which I think is a fork of Squeak or shares lineage with it.
- scotty79 2mo agoWhat do you use it for?
- brabel 2mo agoI used it to explore data since it has built in support for various data formats and easily made visualizations, but I haven’t used it in a few years because I thought it was using too much RAM for what it gave me (around 1GB to start with).
