Re: [Pharo-users] Reddit discussion (rant) about Pharo 4.0 first time users' experiences
There was a criticism about the VM build requiring OSX SDK 10.6 being +4 years old. https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm
Has anyone built with a later SDK? cheers -ben

It is the first hit if you search for 'Pharo Documentation' !
Of course, one on one mentoring is way better than any documentation for anything.

I recently (2 weeks) begun working with a total neophite to St and there

When I say that there is a lack, I mean that this person (who is well
versed in looking up stuff on the internet) couldn't find proper material for getting started.
(whether this material does not exist or exists but is difficult to
find, I don

And it's not have been the first time this happened to me.
So far, my best (fluid, straightforward) experiences learning St has
been when someone else taught me.
