Are you searching for a "software development program" with which you can do everything? Well, the answer to this question is Squeak as it is a combined programming and desktop environment. Squeak is a modern, open source full featured execution of the powerful Smalltalk programming language and environment. It is highly convenient as its virtual machine is written entirely in Smalltalk making it easy to debug, analyze, and change. You can say it is the vehicle for a wide range of projects from multimedia applications, educational platforms to commercial web application development. So, the search is over as even "software development companies in South Africa" have approved this vehicle!The best thing is you can use Squeak's existing programs, objects and facilities and combine them in new ways and build your own personal application. This is done by coding with the fully object oriented language Smalltalk or by interactively creating, manipulating, scripting and browsing objects on the screen.
Highlights:
* It's free and you can download it, use it, copy it and even sell your programs created with it.
* It is completely open source up to the last bit of the inner system.
* Being a multiplatform system, it works identical on Windows, Mac, Linux, different flavors of UNIX, and some other operating systems, as a plug-in in web browsers and on some PDAs.
* Every code can be browsed, programs can be changed while they are running, and data can be inspected and altered directly.
* Squeak is used in schools where younger children literally play with it and the older ones are educated in math and science with it.
* If you need full control over the program and its data while it is running then Squeak is the right choice for you.
So you may need Squeak for your kid or even for yourself! Why, not as Smalltalk is a very efficient programming language.
