We report our experience in implementing SqueakJS, a bit-compatible implementation of Squeak/Smalltalk written in pure JavaScript. SqueakJS runs entirely in the Web browser with a virtual file system that can be directed to a server or client-side storage. Our implementation is notable for simplicity and performance gained through adaptation to the...

Developing rich Web applications can be a complex job - especially when it comes to mobile device support. Web-based environments such as Lively Webwerkstatt can help developers implement such applications by making the development process more direct and interactive. Further the process of developing software is collaborative which creates the nee...

The Lively Kernel is a browser-based environment for authoring active Web content. Being a self-supporting system, it is simple and compact, yet it supports rapid authoring with little need for programming expertise. Most importantly, the entire context of creation is now embedded in the cloud, a shared space in which to find, alter, create and sha...

Lively Fabrik is a Web-based general-purpose end-user programming environment. Based on the Lively Kernel, Lively Fabrik extends the ideas of the original Fabrik system by empowering end-users to create interactive Web content entirely within their Web browsers. Web applications created with Lively Fabrik typically combine Web sources, data manipul...

Wikis are Web-based collaborative systems designed to help people share information. Wikis have become popular due to their openness which gives users complete control over the organization and the content of wiki pages. Unfortunately existing wiki engines restrict users to enter only passive con- tent, such as text, graphics, and videos and do not...

For better or worse, the web browser has become a widely used target platform for software applications. Desktop-style applications such as word processors, spreadsheets, calendars, games and instant messaging systems that were earlier written for specific operating systems, CPU architectures or devices are now written for the World Wide Web, to be...

The Sun Labs Lively Kernel is a new approach to Web programming. It provides a complete platform for Web applications, including dynamic graphics, network access, and development tools, and requires nothing more than available web browsers. We call the system "lively" for three reasons. It comes live off a web page. There is no installation. The en...

The Lively Kernel is a complete platform for Web programming written in JavaScript using graphics available in leading browsers. A widget set built from these elements provides a user interface kit, and the widget set is also extensible. A window-based IDE allows users to edit their applications and even the system itself.

Squeak is an open, highly-portable Smalltalk implementation whose virtual machine is written entirely in Smalltalk, making it easy to. debug, analyze, and change. To achieve practical performance, a translator produces an equivalent C program whose performance is comparable to commercial Smalltalks.Other noteworthy aspects of Squeak include: a comp...

Fabrik is an experimental interactive graphical programming environment designed to simplify the programming process by integrating the user interface, the programmer language and its representation, and the environmental languages used to construct and debug programs. The programming language uses a functional, bidirectional data-flow model that t...

Fabrik is a visual programming environment - a kit of computational and user-interface components that can be “wired” together to build new components and useful applications. Fabrik diagrams utilize bidirectional dataflow connections as a shorthand for multiple paths of flow. Built on object-oriented foundations. Fabrik components can compute arbi...

Intellectual Merits: A large number of the most important ideas and intellectual contributions of this system are new (or are non-mainstream ideas from the past that will appear new) disposed in powerful and often novel ways. Those we find particularly interesting are: how the bootstrapping is done, a "universal object" approach to end-user facilit...
