PharoSmalltalk in Apple app store for iPad
PharoSmalltalk is available in the Apple App Store for iPad (primary), iPhone, and Mac as https://apps.apple.com/us/app/pharosmalltalk/id6759073615/PharoSmalltalk It uses a new VM with no JIT (iPad forbids JIT) and small objects encoded in the low bits of pointers rather than in the high bits, due to Apple ASLR restrictions. Many thanks to Tim Mackinnon for over 111 emails and trying 98 test builds. Source https://github.com/avwohl/iospharo Note that I have a strong background in compilers, not Smalltalk.
