Overview
Webside is an innovative platform that serves as both an API specification for interacting with Smalltalk systems and a web IDE built on top of that API. By keeping the specifics of any given Smalltalk dialect at bay, Webside allows developers to benefit from a versatile and unified development environment. This ensures that regardless of the Smalltalk implementation in use, users can tap into a range of traditional IDE tools designed to enhance their coding experience.
Whether you are looking to set up a development environment or simply want to connect to an existing Smalltalk backend, Webside provides a user-friendly interface that streamlines the process. The platform is designed not only for developers familiar with Smalltalk but also for those new to the ecosystem, making it an appealing choice for diverse users.
