[Pharo-dev] AppeX

Yesterday I had a look at AppeX (from Cincom in VW) and gave a test drive to Tide in Pharo/Amber. AppeX is interesting as it allows one to embed javascript code directly in methods. Like: myMethod: x { // this is javascript here. alert('Welcome ' + x); } This indeed reduces the friction between Smalltalk and Javascript (which we still need to write somewhere, for example with JSStream / JSFunction in Seaside or elsewhere). Since we do now have OpalCompiler and compiler override possibilities, how hard would it be to look into this? I remember Helvetia from Lukas which looked like something similar. Phil
