UKSTUG Meeting - Squeak 6.1 launch party! - 2 September 2026

Join us for this special off-cycle event to celebrate the new release of
Squeak 6.1! More than four years in the making, the new release brings a
new tree browser, the return of "The Worlds of Squeak" from 2004, and many
other new features and improvements across the system.

Rather than a regular presentation, this will be an informal online release
party. We'll take a tour through some of the highlights of 6.1, hear from
Squeak contributors about their favorite changes, and leave plenty of room
to chat about the present, past, and future of Squeak.

Also, we'd love to see what YOU are doing with Squeak! If you want, bring a
short demo along (max. 5 min) and show us your work. New tools, shaky
experiments, and works in progress are all welcome.

Come celebrate the release, meet fellow Squeakers, and see what's new in
the world of Squeak!

About Squeak:
Squeak is the direct descendant of Smalltalk-80 and currently 29 years old.
It features the Morphic framework for interactive GUI development, Etoys,
and a rich set of tools for object-oriented, exploratory programming.
Squeak runs on the OpenSmalltalk VM, with JIT compilation for fast
execution and support for all major platforms. Squeak is being used and
developed for education, research, games, applications, and exploring what
a live Smalltalk system can be.

This will be an online meeting.

If you'd like to join us, please sign up in advance on the meeting's Meetup
