Hello Esteban, Thank you for the Seaside snipet 😊 Now first of all the main difference is formatting right ! There is maybe a different way to do it but evaluating your snipet came out with no formatting at all ?? 😳 So now if I do the following: esteban:=Seaside.WAHtmlCanvas builder render: [:html | html div class: 'text-center'; with: [ html heading level2; class: 'h4'; with: [ html text: 'Timline yes'. html span class: 'g-color-primary g-ml-5'; with: '#02 yes yes ' ] ] ]. maarten := ((Div class: 'text-center g-mb-50') addChild: ((H2 class: 'h4' text: 'Timline yes') addChild: (Span class: 'g-color-primary g-ml-5' text: '#02 yes yes '))) resolve. ———————- endEsteban := (Article class: 'g-pos-rel g-bg-gray-light-v5 g-pa-30' comment:'Estaban''s way') addChild: esteban; addChild: (H3 text: 'French classes' class: 'g-font-weight-300'); resolve. endMaarten := (Article class: 'g-pos-rel g-bg-gray-light-v5 g-pa-30' comment:'Maarten''s way') addChild: maarten; addChild: (H3 text: 'French classes' class: 'g-font-weight-300'); resolve. I get for you:  <article class="g-pos-rel g-bg-gray-light-v5 g-pa-30"> <div class=« text-center"><h2 class="h4">Timline yes<span class="g-color-primary g-ml-5">#02 yes yes </span></h2></div <h3 class="g-font-weight-300">French classes</h3> </article>  End for me:  <article class="g-pos-rel g-bg-gray-light-v5 g-pa-30"> <div class="text-center g-mb-50"> <h2 class="h4">Timline yes <span class="g-color-primary g-ml-5">#02 yes yes </span> </h2> </div <h3 class="g-font-weight-300">French classes</h3> </article>  As you can see even if the Seaside rendering comes without formatting the end results remains somewhat readable which makes copying and pasting way more easy to verify. Now maybe the better question is how you guys work ??? Lets take the example of this template I acquired some time ago: https://wrapbootstrap.com/theme/unify-responsive-website-template-WB0412697 It has over 1750 reusable components and this is why it has some many funny css classes as you noticed. If you want to rebuild the entire template into seaside code you probably have for over a year of work, and I can’t really believe anyone does that ? On my pages basically 90% of the code is copied and then modified and adapted, which means that verifying combining formatting and readability really is a major issue. Doing so and using bootstrap consistency it is actually not so complicated to create some good looking pages in a couple of hours. However maybe the real time saver would be to actually parse existing html into compiled smalltalk methods 😉 html is a kind of xml ins’t it ? And we do have a very nice XML parser in VW 😇 Regards, Maarten, PS1 I’ll see what I do about the name 😅 PS2. You said > ……… and also imported a lot of utilities and > helpers directly from their js/css (DataTables, FontAwesome, Dragtable > and other jQuery plugins). Why do you have the need to do so ? For many things I need I just declare the required javascript libraries and css files in the header part of AppeX isn’t it like this it is supposed to work ?. > Le 10 oct. 2018 à 18:45, Esteban A.

BootStrapLight
by Maarten Mostert Oct. 10, 2018

Oct. 10, 2018

Hello everyone, Notice that I just started and published a small package (BootStrapLight) that does the following ^((Div class: 'text-center g-mb-50') addChild: ((H2 class: 'h4' text: 'Timline yes') addChild: (Span class: 'g-color-primary g-ml-5' text: '#02 yes yes '))) resolve. Which returns: <div class=« text-center g-mb-50"> <h2 class="h4">Timline yes <span class="g-color-primary g-ml-5">#02 yes yes </span> </h2> </div> You can also mix smalltalk with html like: ^(Li class: 'col-md-12 g-mb-40' comment: 'Timeline Content') addChild: ((Div class: 'row') addChild: ‘<div class="g-hidden-sm-down u-timeline-v2__icon g-top-35"> <i class="d-block g-width-18 g-height-18 g-bg-blue g-brd-around g-brd-3 g-brd-gray-light-v5 rounded-circle"></i></div>’ ) resolve Which will resolve into:  <li class="col-md-12 g-mb-40"> <div class="row"> <div class="g-hidden-sm-down u-timeline-v2__icon g-top-35"> <i class="d-block g-width-18 g-height-18 g-bg-blue g-brd-around g-brd-3 g-brd-gray-light-v5 rounded-circle"></i> </div> </div> </li> <!— End Timeline Content --> This package is obviously for those of you who don’t use Seaside, Seabreeze or other complexe frameworks and basically end up copying and pasting their websites with strings out of commercial themes before bringing them to live with AppeX and javascript. I did what I published this weekend right, so it is not complete the API is not graved into marble.

Re: [Esug-list] [Pharo-users] Gemstone as a service?
by James Foster Sept. 16, 2018

Sept. 16, 2018

My ESUG presentation (based on recent screencasts at https://www.youtube.com/user/JamesGFoster/videos <https://www.youtube.com/user/JamesGFoster/videos>) culminated with a live hands-on opportunity for people to connect to a cloud-hosted GemStone/S 64 Bit 3.4.2 server. As I expected, the question came up of future prospects for a real GaaS offering. So far I’m not aware of anyone with official plans in this space, but I’m personally interested in exploring the idea. Two questions arise from the point-of-view of any potential provider: (1) what is the demand; and (2) what would it look like from an operational perspective. So, in order to better answer those questions I’d like to get in touch with people who would like to try out a GaaS solution. If I provide a dev/test environment for 45 days, will you will give me feedback? If you are interested, please respond privately with (a) your GemStone/S version (preferably 3.4.2), (b) the size of your repository (preferable less than 32 GB, ideally 8 GB or less), (c) what client IDE you use to interact with GemStone, and (d) a sorted list of preferred/acceptable server locations (from Amsterdam, Frankfurt, London, New York, San Francisco, and Toronto). Thanks! James > On Aug 18, 2018, at 6:11 PM, Andy Burnett <andy.burnett(a)knowinnovation.com> wrote: > > Hello, > I was wondering if anyone offers GaaS?
