| Thank you for the describing the interest. You do not have to read the handbook to format the text. You can use Markdown in a text snippet :). This gives you a compressed overview:

And pharo itself as the basis of this seems so convoluted and complex... We use Pharo as a programming language for building the system, and most extensions are expected to be written in it. It's possible to connect to other runtimes, like Python or JS, and extend the object inspector that works with remote objects using those languages. But overall, learning Pharo is a bit of a prerequisite. I certainly understand that it can appear foreign, but convoluted and complex are not an attributes I would associate with it :). Now, in GT, the environment is built from the ground up anew and it's different from classic interfaces found in Pharo or Cuis. And of course, it's different from typical development environment, too, because we wanted to build a different kind of interface in which visualization is a first class entity. Our community is indeed on Discord a lot, but we also host discussions on our GitHub repository: https://github.com/feenkcom/gtoolkit/discussions In any case, I am happy you find the need for "a great knowledge base and data visualization" relevant and useful. |
