Amber, the Smalltalk for web developers

Amber is an implementation of the Smalltalk-80 language that runs on top of the JavaScript runtime. Amber brings client side scripting to the next level. Imagine developing directly in an IDE in your web browser: write unit tests, debug, inspect, save and run your code without hitting the refresh button.

In this session, we will:

  • Show how to get started with Amber
  • Show how the JavaScript integration works
  • Show examples of how to access and quickly wrap existing JavaScript libraries (e.g. Google Maps, Ace editor)
  • Discuss how Amber can be easily incorporated into existing webapplications - regardless of the back-end (Ruby, PHP, Seaside, etc) and how it can co-exist with existing client-side JavaScript
  • Show some nice applications written in Amber
