Introduction

Squeak is a medium to express and explore ideas. In some way it's the continuation of Dynabook. The goal of these tutorials is to learn some of the wonderful features of Squeak in a easy and funny way.

 

What do you need for the tutorials?

I'm using the 3.2gamma version of Squeak. Because it's not a release version is not so easy to get it; but you can download here a .ZIP file with a complete windows version. Unzip all the contents in a new folder and run Squeak.exe

Complete Squeak to download: Squeak3.2gamma-4827-windows.zip (14Mbytes)

If all runs fine, you'll see some like this:
