A new OS, A language/gui, A dockeresque The pattern from other "cool" language home pages seems to be one sentence with what and why (examples below). Here's a first take leveraging Simon Sinek's advice to "Start With Why" [1]: Do you want total, immediate control over your programming and computing experience? Then Pharo is for you. It is a live, dynamic, turtles-all-the-way-down environment (like an IDE and OS rolled into one). Pharo is also a purely object-oriented language. Are you sitting down? The environment is <italics>written in itself</italics>! Pharo is open source, and available for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux. Examples from other languages: Ruby is... A dynamic, open source programming language with a focus on simplicity and productivity. It has an elegant syntax that is natural to read and easy to write. Python is a programming language that lets you work quickly and integrate systems more effectively. Learn More JavaScriptÂ® (often shortened to JS) is a lightweight, interpreted, object-oriented language with first-class functions, most known as the scripting language for Web pages, but used in many non-browser environments as well such as node.js or Apache CouchDB. It is a prototype-based, multi-paradigm scripting language that is dynamic, and supports object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles.
