Welcome Enno:
Good an bad news.
Squeak is a moving target, 3.9 is on work and change a lot from 3.8.
So some old good friends as BobsUI have a difficult time or not work at all
in 3.8 , as you found. ( I investigate why and see If have a solution)
In SM , that is SqueakMap exist one package named SVI what could interest
you, no for UI building.
UI building as commercial cousins don't exist in Squeak, but wise and
dedicated members are cooking some support what eventual lead to this.
So you have the chance to do history.:-)

In Argentina exist a "beginners only" group named SqueakRos , mostly Spanish
, but with many what understand English and with others Smalltalk
background.
If you wish, send mail off list.
