for that use Dolphin Smalltalk. They have native widgets. But for me
widgets is not the key aspect of Smalltalk.
You should show the incremental compilation, hot debugging...and the
inspector.
A widget is just a matter of money and engineering and smalltalk is not
about that. The essence is elegance and uniformity
