<p>Hi Marcel,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>mainly because of its speed, I guess. I don't think that we could simulate older Squeak VMs inside SqueakJS. In general, I think the idea is cool, but wouldn't webasm be significantly faster?</p>

<p>Hi all,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>just a short and curious questions, but <span>not guaranteed to be completely unprovoking. :-) Why is Smalltalk Zoo, the virtual exhibition which compares different milestones in the history of Squeak/Smalltalk, not implemented in Smalltalk itself but in
JavaScript, a language which cannot compile itself, is quite the oppposite of Smalltalk in terms of clearness of expression, and escapes control of the actual application? While I love the idea in general, I think it's a shame that the zoo of a language that
aims to be implemented in itself is not implemented in that language itself. :D</span></p>
