[Newbies] learning Morphic

[Matthias Korn]

Hi,

I am actually facing the same problem - not understanding the
differences between all the morphs and what they actually do.

Things I found most interesting so far (after asking here on the list):
- the Morphic chapter by John Maloney:
http://stephane.ducasse.free.fr/FreeBooks/CollectiveNBlueBook/morphic.final.pdf
- this PluggableMorphs tutorial:
http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2962
- and the various GUI builders:
http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/2914 (BobsUI)
http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5607 (ToolBuilder)
http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/3836 (Maui)


Hope there is more, though!?

Regards,
Matthias
