Since there have been two SmallTalk links in the first page, I think it might be nice to remind people of this Pharo MOOC.

    I’m following it right now actually! I’ll have better thoughts about it in a week or two. As I’ve only the time to do it an hour or two at the end of the day.

      The Pharo VM is 32bits. It works on 64bits OS if you correctly install dependencies libraries in 32bits

      About those libs …

      I mean, I might do that because it’s a Smalltalk-alike and I really would like to learn something about Smalltalk, but no 64 bit option is really questionable.

        There’s actually a 64-bit VM now, but there wasn’t last year when this was written. I suspect you can just grab that version and still follow along easily.

          If just learning Smalltalk, you might want to try Squeak that we’ve been discussing in another thread:

          http://squeak.org/

          That thread was on how children were learning stuff with it. You probably have the prerequisites more than covered. ;)

          The site linked seems to be for an older course and contains only static content.

          The right site for the pharo mooc (with exercises) is this one.
