    She missed the biggest ‚programming portal‘ of all: Smalltalk! Pharo ( https://pharo.org/ ) and Squeak ( https://squeak.org/ ) are the best-known modern incarnations. Inspecting objects, ‚live‘ coding, a GUI that's intimately tied to its CLI - that's exactly Smalltalk! The Morphic UI: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/1870 and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morphic_(software) Making an app: https://codingitwrong.com/2021…
