yes, read all the pharo documentation, read the entire pharo code, understand the entire pharo code, make a few hundrend pharo application and boom your are an expert :) Seriously though, do whatever is interesting to you and ask questions here and in stackoverflow. You dont need to be expert , just someone that finds pharo enjoyable and useful.

Well for start there is this http://pharo.org/documentation (books Pharo By Example + Deep into Pharo + Pharo for the Enterprise) and this http://pharo.gemtalksystems.com/ As far as expertise goes you can probably become an expert by writing a book about Pharo. :) Peter On Fri, Nov 7, 2014 at 6:01 PM, Roelof Wobben <r.wobben(a)home.nl> wrote: > Hello, > > Is there a book / tutorial/ challenges that I can use to become a expert > in Pharo ? > > Roelof > > >

Hi, i think in the meantime the docu _is quite good. i like the deep into pharo book, that also covered basic areas like Blocks (i liked that chapter). btw there are a few other areas where i'd want to read something about: refactoring, the RBSomething objects, Ring (the RGSomething objects), AST. werner

I converted the first 5 chapters to Pharo 3 , 1 chapter has been ported by Stef and another from Damien, so we are more or less at 50% but I gave up as I was burned out and fed up documenting stuff :D. But (Arnold accent) I will be back ! My conversion was not flawless since this was my first project using Pillar. I think however that is ok quality. By the way I am aware of the work on the documentation for all books generally because I follow my github feed.
