Re: ESUG 2025 Registration opened

by Koen De Hondt

Stéphane, This communication is very confusing. The website states that the conference starts on Tuesday July 1 and ends on Friday July 4. Joachim thinks that the conference is 5 days long. That is not correct. It is 4 days long. It starts on Tuesday, not on Monday. Please fix the registration form, because people cannot indicate the correct days. Thanks.

Craig Latta - Livecoding Language Models: AI Context in Live Environments - 26 March 2025

by UK Smalltalk

For our March meeting, Craig Latta will show how to leverage AI language models in a livecoding environment. Using a tool creates context for complimentary tools. For example, selecting an object in a Smalltalk inspector creates useful context for browsing the class of that object. This is a potent idea in an integrated development environment, where multiple tools operate on related information. The extensive context in a live environment enables powerful collaboration with contemporary AI language models. Tools built from that collaboration could greatly augment human capability. Craig Latta ( https://thiscontext.com/author/ccrraaiigg/ ) will show some foundations for them, and suggest ways of easing their construction through the systematic description of existing tool functionality. For a preview, please see Craig's blog at thiscontext.com ( http://thiscontext.com/ ). Craig Latta is a research computer scientist in Berkeley and Amsterdam, with interests including livecoding, music performance, and interactive visualization. The discovery of a mysteriously-placed Blue Book at university led to stints at several exploratory labs, and a pursuit of improvisation wherever code is found. His current work focuses on polyglot computing with WebAssembly, the novel compiler framework Epigram, and human augmentation through AI. 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/305761372/ ) to receive the meeting details. Don’t forget to bring your laptop and drinks!

UK Smalltalk User Group meeting: Richard Ronteltap - SmallJS - 26 February 2025

by UK Smalltalk

For our February 2025 presentation, Richard Ronteltap will present his SmallJS project. SmallJS ( https://small-js.org/Home/Home.html ) is a free and open source implementation of the elegant and powerful Smalltalk-80 (ST) language. It compiles to JavaScript (JS) that runs in modern browsers or in Node.js. SmallJS is file based, not image based, so you can develop in your favorite IDE. The default setup is for Visual Studio Code, with ST syntax coloring and step debugging! You code separately from the SmallJS base libraries (image) and only the parts you use are imported automatically when running your app. SmallJS is fully object oriented, so customizable on every level. For usability, ST class and method names are kept mostly equal to their familiar JS counterparts. JS libraries already encapsulated in ST are: Browsers: Document, Window, HTML elements, events, CSS, streams. Node.js: HTTP server, Express, 4 databases, files. SmallJS is mostly intended for use by JS devs that want a nicer language to work in. But it can also be used by existing ST devs that are willing to learn a new ST framework that can directly run in browsers and can seamlessly access the powerful Node.js ecosystem, without the need for bridges between overlapping frameworks. Richard ( https://github.com/FunctionPoint ) studied Computer Science at the University of Amsterdam (UvA), where he used used Smalltalk-80 to write a query optimizer for a prototype OODBMS. He currently works in IT / Software Management within the IT department of the UvA. 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/305761370/ ) to receive the meeting details. Don’t forget to bring your laptop and drinks!
