Hi,
One thing we noticed over the past year since we introduced GT in Pharo is that people still tend to use these tools in a similar way classic tools were used. We think there is a more potential in these tools.
When all your life you've only ever had a hammer and carry it on you tool belt, someone gives you a shine new toolbox full of every tool you are not familiar with, when you see a screw you forget to even look in the toolbox and by habit reach for the hammer.
To change this, we would like to collect stories of how using these tools enabled a workflow that was otherwise not possible. To get this started, we will start to document more consistently some of the sessions, and we would like to get input from your as well. The idea is to create a catalog of tutorials that people can follow and get inspired from.
Let me start. I recently had to debug a small problem, and I ended up having an experience that I found beautiful: http://www.humane-assessment.com/blog/debugging-duplicated-behavior-with-gti...
What do you think?
Very cool. Thanks for sharing. I think you have the advantage of intimate knowledge of the tools. (I hadn't known of "ContextStackSignal log”.)
Of course. The goal of this exercise is not to brag, but to offer starting points for others.
But even my knowing a bit of Mondrian/Roassal, it was a lot to take in. For outsiders it might be a bit dry with the code samples foreign to them. But I think it would make a compelling video for outsiders.
It is great to see it used in real life context, but for me to better adopt and utilise such tools, I really need hands on practice, and in another month that might not be a example to work through. Maybe it also needs some simple contrived tutorial, where you create .
Indeed. That is why we are thinking that these examples should be accompanied by images in which people will be able to practice. I already preserved the current image. I will get back on this.
Cheers, Doru
