[ANN] success story: ApptiveGrid

by Norbert Hartl

I wanted to write this for a very long time nowâ¦so finallyâ¦Iâm very proud to announce a new success story: ApptiveGrid ApptiveGrid is a SaaS tool to digitalize and automatize business processes. On the one hand ApptiveGrid is visual database that enables you to model your database via web frontend. At the same time this model is available via REST API. On top of the data model a form creator turns your model into a form that you can send e.g. via email to inquire data from other peopleâ¦ On the other hand ApptiveGrid is a workflow system where you can define your work flow in the web frontend and connect to events. These events are either internal (resulting from a change in your data model) or external where you can use web hooks to kick of work flows. With the combination of both parts ApptiveGrid is able to solve many of modern digital workflows. It enables to make it for low cost and in almost no time which are two pretty good reasons to use it. If you want to use it just visit: http://www.apptivegrid.de. ApptiveGrid provides a start plan at no cost where most of the functionalities are available. If you have additional needs just write me. For the people in the pharo community Iâm sure we can provide a bit more on top. About the tech stack: - The business backend of ApptiveGrid is 100% pharo - It uses https://github.com/svenvc/zinc components for the HTTP frontend - and https://github.com/ApptiveGrid/Soil as the persistence solution. - Each user has its own database (an empty soil database is 24kb on disk, could be made even approx. 5kb). There are over 3100 databases in the system right now - one pharo image holds multiple soil databases open and provides memory caching for the objects - routing of requests is done with haproxy connection persistence - the web frontend is made with Vue.js and a pharo library that we transpile to JS with PharoJS If you are interested you can also watch my ESUG videos at https://www.youtube.com/@esugboard. All talks in the last 2 years were about ApptiveGrid If you have question, donât hesitate to ask, Iâm happy to answer! Norbert

Pharo needs you! Call to save the Pharo UI

by stephane ducasse

Hello people If you want that Pharo just do not endlessly stay with such a crappy UI we all know, please consider joining the effort. We should make sure that as a general principle, a model MUST not refer to a UI. So that we can change the UI. We are working on it. But we need help. We should (1) Migrate last cool Morphic-based tools such as Finder, Settings to Spec2, FileList to Spec (2) Remove dependencies from Domain objects to Morphic (obviously) - remove to UIManager first from code outside Morphic. As a general principle please watch http://rmod-pharo-mooc.lille.inria.fr/AdvancedDesignMooc/Videos/M03_S5.mp4 http://rmod-pharo-mooc.lille.inria.fr/AdvancedDesignMooc/Videos/M09_S4.mp4 It looks basic but it is so true. Current status (1) Hernan started to work on the Setting Browser I know someone started to work on Finder but I think the effort was stalled. We need help there. (2) We started to clean the refactorings and we are making progress but this is slow. I started to remove references to UIManager because it should go away. In Spec we introduced dialog, check the examples in subclasses of SpDialogPresenter In addition, an application is able to create some default dialog check ui - dialogs in SpApplication I introduced a simple notification center that should play a kind of growl. The inform: calls should be redirected to notify: because inform: was in P11 not blocking and now in P12 there are. I created special issues about the references to UIManager I opened issues with a special tag https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%… The analysis is here https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/issues/14174 <https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/issues/14174> Here are some scripts. # Here we see the dependencies from Spec to UIManager | allSpec results | results := Dictionary new. allSpec := SpPresenter withAllSubclasses.

Open Call: Object-Centric Breakpoints experiment

by Steven Costiou

Dear Community, We would like to invite you to participate to our experimental study on Object-Centric Breakpoints. This study aims to evaluate and to understand how Object-Centric Breakpoints impacts the debugging activity. This experiment takes place in **Pharo 9**. In this experiment, we ask you to solve 2 debugging tasks, one with standard Pharo tools and one other with Object-Centric Breakpoints. Between the two tasks, you will have to follow a tutorialand warmup tasks to learn how to use the tool. **How to Participate:** All instructions are here, please read them carefully: https://github.com/Pharo-XP-Tools/XPImageGeneration/tree/exp-ocd **About the Experiment:** The experiment last between 40 minutes and 2 hours. Participants should have experience with Pharo development and debugging. We recommend having more than 6 months experience in Pharo and debugging in general. You will gain insights into the Object-Centric Breakpoints approach and contribute to advancements in debugging research. Help us to build better debugging tools that help you debug! :) **Some constraints:** - You are not allowed to load external tools and baselines, but you can use anything that is in the base image - Please do the experiment in one shot if possible without interruptions - The experiment sends anonymous data to our inria server, please make sure that you have a valid internet connection - Please try to use the object-centric breakpoints when the experimental framework asks you to **Notes:** Participation is voluntary, and everything is anonymous. You can abandon the experiment at any point (and your data will be discarded). For any question, you can contact us: steven.costiou(a)inria.fr and valentin.bourcier(a)inria.fr Thank you for considering participating in our study. Your contribution will be valuable in advancing the field of debugging and helping us understand what tools we need to build for Pharo. Sincerely, Steven and Valentin, EVREF team, Inria
