Hi there!

Hi there! Pharo track will be promoted on Mind shifting May of Exercism initiative. Here are some details from one Exercism founder (Erik): 

https://forum.exercism.org/t/pharo-being-featured-in-mind-shifting-may/5420

There are couple of things we could improve here: 
where it is used: we’d definitely find better and newer examples that ATMs usecase…

where it is great: I would add productivity, once people get through initial learning curve. It is tightly connected to bullets below (image based approach and liveness and immersive env.)

Features: embeddability and interoperability with othe PLs - working on minimal Pharo image that can be part of e.g. C program and vice versa.

So if you have ideas, thoughts how this script can be improved, please reply!

Hi,

Thanks for featuring Pharo in the Mind shifting May. For sure it did
that to me (as Squeak). Here is the video:

Those are some nice soundbites - and pleased to see they capture the spirit of Pharo (and Smalltalk). I was heartened in the second link to see that he picked up on the ability to define code from DNU (something we tried to show in the early exercism launch - although having not kept up with it, I don't know if that remains true - potentially if thats what the speaker picked up on),

Thanks for keeping the project alive David!
