Pharo-contribution job configuration mess

by Yuriy Tymchuk

So Iâve noticed that all new builds cause a change in configuration and I rind this very frustrating. I think that this is related to https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-20176. Can someone update disk usage plugin? Cheers Uko

To me, we need to get out of BitBlt rendering completely and towards vectors. Reliance on BitBlt makes Pharo seem slow and outdated. Pixelation is so early 1990s. Novices also don't understand that a slow GUI isn't indicative of everything being slow. There's no reason Pharo's UI can't be fast enough that you can't tell the difference between it and a native app. That would do a lot to make Pharo more palatable to newcomers. First impressions are critical. We should also make it easy for people to build animations and build them into the core tools (when it makes sense). Most modern OSs feature great support for animation. Even if these things are largely eye candy, they do change people's perceptions. I'd love to be able to do something like this: aMorph resizeToBounds: (100 @ 100 extent: 200 @ 200) inSeconds: 2. Speaking of which, it would be nice if orientation could be included into the equation. Perhaps support for affine transforms would be standard. There also should be substantial support for vector graphics. The Athens SVG input is a good step forward, but I'd like to see something that seems very Pharo-native and that can be exported to SVG, rather than something that seems very close to SVG XML (as is now the case). Ideally, I'd like to do the old demo of rotating a browser and still using it but have it still look smooth (i.e., no pixelation). Another thing to perhaps address is how morphs are controlled and resized. Currently, when we change the extent, then the top left corner remains the same. For most cases, keeping the center the same would be more intuitive; vvvv does that and is fairly easy for programming novices to use. It would also allow us to combine rotation and scaling in some ways: aMorph rotateAndScaleBottomLeftTo: 300 @ 20.

Know what would be making it really useful? A nice dark theming feature. Yeah, that's not Morphic-Core, but currently, this aspect makes the whole thing feel stuck in the 90's. Esteban, did you had any luck with that?

It's a subset of Morphic that is able to be loaded into a headless image, initialize itself and show world with one basic responsive morph. We can clean it and continue with basic fonts support, windows support etc. Every step will produce one package that can be loaded on top others, will heave well defined dependencies, will be small in size, easier to understand, maintain and refactor. It looks hard but in fact it is not so horrible. In one of my previous testing image I was able to reach the state where Morphic-Core was clear - generated no new unimplemented classes and similar mess. We only need to define it as a common goal.
