I am a Java &amp; .Net application programmer who has flirted with Smalltalk for a long time without doing the &quot;deep dive&quot; to really understand it.� Pharo and Seaside are making me think that everything is coming together now for another try.� That and some micro-ISV ambitions to give me a real reason to write some code outside of work.<br>
<br>For my type of project I really need a db package and a gui package.� That leads to the questions:<br>1. Right now, is SqeakDBX my best choice for a db interface?� Sqlite is my db of choice for the project I have in mind.<br>
2. For the UI, I&#39;ve been reading about the choices and I&#39;m having a hard time finding a currently supported project.� Do I go with polymorph by default?<br><br>For the UI, what about &quot;self-hosting&quot; a Seaside instance and doing the UI in the browser?� Ie, the app starts a Seaside server and opens a browser window pointed at the apps main window (home page).� Can that be done?� Is it a good idea?<br>
<br>I hope you can give me some direction.� I like the direction of Pharo and Seaside is just plain cool.� I want to do this to get my head outside the coding box I&#39;m kind of stuck in.� And have some fun.<br><br>Thanks for any help,<br>
