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.
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:

What do you think?
Cheers,

Great and enlightening work ! Actually, we spend more than one hour on
this bug during last Pharo Sprint with Onil.
We trace the problem to be linked to the duplication of Announcement
creation somewhere, but we miss your
knowledge ;-)

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.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing. I think you have the advantage of
intimate knowledge of the tools. (I hadn't known of
"ContextStackSignal log".) 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.

Hi,
Sorry, thats not what I meant :) which was that even though its well
written, it threads together a few tools I haven't used a lot, so its
hard to retain. Its has sparked my interest, but for it to soak in I
need some hands-on practice.
