A tutorial showing how to implement a small but non-trivial web application in Pharo using Seaside, Glorp (an ORM) and PostgreSQL.

The focus is not so much on the smaller size or the higher developer productivity in Pharo, but more on the fact that we can cover so much ground using such powerful frameworks, as well as the natural development flow from model over tests and persistence to web GUI.

The following article describes the code in this repository: https://medium.com/@svenvc/reddit-st-in-10-cool-pharo-classes-1b5327ca0740

Installation

The following expression loads all code and its dependencies (latest Zinc HTTP Components, NeoConsole, P3 with Glorp and Seaside 3) using the project's Baseline:
