	    <h2>What is Amber?</h2>
	    <p>Amber, formerly known as Jtalk, is an implementation of the Smalltalk-80 language. It is designed to make client-side development faster and easier. It allows developers to write client-side heavy web applications in Smalltalk. </p> 
	    <p>Amber includes an integrated development environment with a class browser, workspace, transcript, object inspector and debugger.</p> 
	    <p>Amber is written in itself, including the compiler, and compiles into efficient JavaScript, mapping one-to-one with the JS equivalent.</p> 
	    <h2>Give it a try!</h2>
	    <p><b>Try a <button onClick="smalltalk.Browser._open()"> Class browser</button> right now!</b></p>
