Jtalk

By Nicolas Petton petton.nicolas@gmail.com

Jtalk is an implementation of the Smalltalk language that runs on top of the JavaScript runtime. It is designed to make client-side development faster and easier.

Overview

Jtalk is written in itself, including the parser and compiler. Jtalk compiles into efficient JavaScript, mapping one-to-one with the equivalent JavaScript. There is no interpretation at runtime.

Some highlights:

  • Jtalk features an IDE with a Class browser, workspace and transcript
  • Pharo Smalltalk is considered as the reference implementation
  • Jtalk includes a canvas to generate HTML, like Seaside
  • Jtalk includes a jQuery binding

License

Jtalk is released under the MIT license.
