The next meeting of the UK Smalltalk User Group will be on Wednesday, July
29th.

Peter Svensson will present his work on Cloudsdk-st.

Cloudsdk-st (https://github.com/psvensson/cloudsdk-st) is an experiment in
ways to work with cloud deployment from a Smalltalk image.
Traditionally cloud deployments run 'out of band' in separate build scripts
or build/CI/CD systems. This project lets you define Docker images (using
Dockerfiles) for Smalltalk, send them to the build system of a cloud
provider directly and then choose what kind of service you want your image
to be (cloud function or long-running VM).
Currently it only supports Google Cloud and has a very rough UI. Future
plans include support for AWS and Azure as well as better feedback and a
Spec2 UI.

Given the current COVID-19 restrictions, this will be an online meeting
from home.

If you'd like to join us, please sign up in advance on the meeting's Meetup
page https://www.meetup.com/UKSTUG/events/cbklbrybckbdc/ to receive the
meeting details.

See you there!
