SmalltalkHub has gone through some technical evolution which has taken some time. Especially various persistence schemes were tested and most of them ended up problematic, Nicolas tested a LOT of variations I think.
The latest stack looks very promising though - and the reason I can describe it is because I am trying to help out a bit with it - though haven't had much time yet.
I just hadn't heard for a while and was interested :) Göran Krampe wrote
The client is a full Amber app built with Bootstrap 2 from Twitter. It is very nice looking and responsive. It communicates with the backend using plain jQuery REST.
From a UX and UI point of view, I am very very interested in the Amber/Bootstrap approach as UI was something I found Smalltalk trailing a bit.

The server side is built with Seaside-REST which then uses a domain model described with Magritte 3 (Nicolas just switched) which is persisted using RiakDocument + Phriak for persistency. An interesting twist here is that Magritte is being used to produce the JSON RiakDocuments to store.
To promote Smalltalk to get more real-world business use all the work that has gone into this could be used to put together some robustness, scalability best practices I assume? Anyhow, good stuff!! Glad to hear things are moving forward :) -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/It-would-be-me-first-tp4365015p4431095.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
